SEPSECS / O-Phosphoseryl-TRNA(Sec) Selenium Transferase Recombinant Protein | SEPSECS recombinant protein
Human SEPSECS / O-Phosphoseryl-TRNA(Sec) Selenium Transferase Recombinant Protein
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The amino acid selenocysteine is the only amino acid that does not have its own tRNA synthetase. Instead, this amino acid is synthesized on its cognate tRNA in a three step process. The protein encoded by this gene catalyzes the third step in the process, the conversion of O-phosphoseryl-tRNA(Sec) to selenocysteinyl-tRNA(Sec).[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2011]
Uniprot Description
SLA/LP: Converts O-phosphoseryl-tRNA(Sec) to selenocysteinyl- tRNA(Sec) required for selenoprotein biosynthesis. Defects in SEPSECS are the cause of pontocerebellar hypoplasia type 2D (PCH2D). PCH2D is a disorder characterized by postnatal onset of progressive atrophy of the cerebrum and cerebellum, microcephaly, profound mental retardation, spasticity, and variable seizures. Belongs to the SepSecS family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The SEPSECS sepsecs (Catalog #AAA2902072) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's SEPSECS / O-Phosphoseryl-TRNA(Sec) Selenium Transferase can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA), Western Blot (WB), Antigen Protein (AP), Protein Array. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the SEPSECS sepsecs 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. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "SEPSECS / O-Phosphoseryl-TRNA(Sec) Selenium Transferase, 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
