The recombinant Baker's yeast ERG11 was expressed with the amino acid range of 1-20. This ERG11 protein is expected to have a theoretical molecular weight of 29.1 kDa. This ERG11 recombinant protein is manufactured in e.coli. The ERG11 gene fragment has been modified by fusing the N-terminal GST tag, providing convenience in detecting and purifying the recombinant ERG11 protein during the following stages.
In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, lanosterol 14-alpha demethylase (ERG11) is a cytochrome P450 monooxygenase that plays a crucial role in the ergosterol biosynthesis pathway. ERG11 catalyzes the demethylation of lanosterol, a key step in the conversion of lanosterol to ergosterol. Ergosterol is the fungal counterpart to mammalian cholesterol and is essential for maintaining the integrity and fluidity of the yeast cell membrane. Inhibition of ERG11 disrupts ergosterol synthesis, leading to impaired membrane function and increased cell permeability. Research areas related to ERG11 include antifungal drug development, as this enzyme is the target of azole antifungal drugs. Understanding the structure and function of ERG11 is crucial for developing new antifungal therapies and combating fungal infections.There are currently no reviews for this product.
