Form
Liquid or Lyophilized powder
Note: We will preferentially ship the format that
we have in stock, however, if you have any special requirement for the format, please remark your
requirement when placing the order, we will prepare according to your demand.
Buffer
If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol.
If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.
Reconstitution
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.
Storage Condition
Store at -20°C/-80°C upon receipt, aliquoting is necessary for mutiple use. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw
cycles.
Shelf Life
The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature
and the stability of the protein itself.
Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized
form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.
Lead Time
3-7 business days
Notes
Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week.

Description
Amino acids 1-541 form the expressed segment for recombinant Human FTCD. This FTCD protein is expected to have a theoretical molecular weight of 60 kDa. This protein is generated in a yeast-based system. The FTCD gene fragment has been modified by fusing the C-terminal 6xHis tag, providing convenience in detecting and purifying the recombinant FTCD protein during the following stages.
Human Formimidoyltransferase-Cyclodeaminase (FTCD) is a bifunctional enzyme involved in the histidine catabolic pathway. It consists of two domains: the formiminotransferase domain and the cyclodeaminase domain. In the formiminotransferase reaction, FTCD catalyzes the transfer of the formimino group from N-formimino-L-glutamate to tetrahydrofolate, producing formate and 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate. In the cyclodeaminase reaction, FTCD converts formiminoglutamate to formamide and ammonia. This enzyme plays a crucial role in maintaining histidine homeostasis and folate metabolism. Research on FTCD includes exploring its role in disorders related to histidine metabolism, understanding its impact on folate utilization, and investigating its potential implications in human health and diseases.
