Alpha-galactosidase A, Alpha-D-galactosidase A, Alpha-D-galactoside galactohydrolase, Melibiase, GLA, GALA.
Source: Sf9, Baculovirus cells.Sterile Filtered colorless solution.Alpha-galactosidase A (GLA) is a homodimeric glycoprotein which hydrolyses the terminal alpha-galactosyl moieties from glycolipids and glycoproteins. GLA catalyzes the hydrolysis of melibiose into galactose and glucose. Various mutations in the GLA gene affect the synthesis, processing, and stability of this enzyme, which causes Fabry disease (a rare lysosomal storage disorder which results from a failure to catabolize alpha-D-galactosyl glycolipid moieties).GLA produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 406 amino acids (32-429 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 46.4kDa (Migrates at 40-57kDa on SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions).GLA is expressed with an 8 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Purity:
Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
