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.
Note: If you have any special requirement for the
glycerol content, please remark when you place the order.
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 2-322 constitute the expression domain of recombinant Human RBKS. This RBKS protein is theoretically predicted to have a molecular weight of 50 kDa. This RBKS protein is produced using e.coli expression system. The RBKS coding gene included the N-terminal 6xHis-SUMO tag, which simplifies the detection and purification processes of the recombinant RBKS protein in following stages of expression and purification.
Ribokinase (RBKS) is a crucial enzyme involved in the phosphorylation of ribose, playing a central role in the cellular metabolism of carbohydrates. As part of the pentose phosphate pathway, RBKS catalyzes the conversion of ribose to ribose-5-phosphate by transferring a phosphate group from ATP to ribose. This phosphorylation step is vital for the subsequent utilization of ribose-5-phosphate in various metabolic pathways, including nucleotide biosynthesis and the generation of reducing equivalents. Beyond its central role in energy metabolism, RBKS has been implicated in cellular stress responses and is associated with the pathogenesis of certain diseases. Investigating RBKS provides insights into the intricate regulation of cellular processes and its potential implications in metabolic disorders.
