Related Product Information for MTHFS recombinant protein
MTHFS, also known as 5-formyltetrahydrofolate cyclo-ligase, is a cytosolic protein involved in the formate metabolic process. MTHFS, with a magnesium cofactor, catalyzes the ATP-dependent reaction that reduces 5-formyltetrahydrofolate (5-MTHF) to 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate (MTHF). MTHF is the substrate used by MTHFR (methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase) to generate 5-MTHF. MTHF is also a coenzyme used in thymidine biosynthesis by thymidylate synthase (FAD). Recombinant human MTHFS protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E Coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.

NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of 5-formyltetrahydrofolate to 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate, a precursor of reduced folates involved in 1-carbon metabolism. An increased activity of the encoded protein can result in an increased folate turnover rate and folate depletion. Three transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2011]
Uniprot Description
Contributes to tetrahydrofolate metabolism. Helps regulate carbon flow through the folate-dependent one-carbon metabolic network that supplies carbon for the biosynthesis of purines, thymidine and amino acids. Catalyzes the irreversible conversion of 5-formyltetrahydrofolate (5-FTHF) to yield 5,10-methenyltetrahydrofolate.

Product Notes
The MTHFS mthfs (Catalog #AAA203977) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The tag for this protein is His-tag. AAA Biotech's MTHFS can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, SDS-PAGE. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MTHFS mthfs for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. The amino acid sequence is listed below: MGSSHHHHHH SSGLVPRGSH MAAAAVSSAK RSLRGELKQR LRAMSAEERL RQSRVLSQKV IAHSEYQKSK RISIFLSMQD EIETEEIIKD IFQRGKICFI PRYRFQSNHM DMVRIESPEE ISLLPKTSWN IPQPGEGDVR EEALSTGGLD LIFMPGLGFD KHGNRLGRGK GYYDAYLKRC LQHQEVKPYT LALAFKEQIC LQVPVNENDM KVDEVLYEDS STA. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MTHFS, 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.Precautions
