Related Product Information for HEXA recombinant protein
Introduction: HEXA is the alpha subunit of the lysosomal enzyme beta-hexosaminidase which, combined with the cofactor GM2 activator protein, catalyzes the degradation of the ganglioside GM2, and other molecules having N-acetyl hexosamines terminus. The two subunits composing Beta-hexosaminidase, alpha and beta, belong to the glycosyl hydrolases family and are encoded by distinct genes. Alpha subunit gene mutations can cause Tay-Sachs disease (GM2-gangliosidosis type I).

Description: HEXA produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 513 amino acids (23-529a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 59.2kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 50-70kDa). HEXA is expressed with a 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Uniprot Description

HEXA: Responsible for the degradation of GM2 gangliosides, and a variety of other molecules containing terminal N-acetyl hexosamines, in the brain and other tissues. The form B is active against certain oligosaccharides. The form S has no measurable activity. Defects in HEXA are the cause of GM2-gangliosidosis type 1 (GM2G1); also known as Tay-Sachs disease. GM2- gangliosidosis is an autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disease marked by the accumulation of GM2 gangliosides in the neuronal cells. GM2G1 is characterized by GM2 gangliosides accumulation in the absence of HEXA activity, leading to neurodegeneration and, in the infantile form, death in early childhood. GM2G1 has an increased incidence among Ashkenazi Jews and French Canadians in eastern Quebec. It exists in several forms: infantile (most common and most severe), juvenile and adult (late onset). Belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 20 family.

It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Hexosaminidase A, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
