Dihydroorotate Dehydrogenase (DHODH) Active Protein | DHODH active protein
Active Dihydroorotate Dehydrogenase (DHODH)
Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Store at 2-8 degree C for one month.
Aliquot and store at -80 degree C for 12 months.
Stability Test:
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
Activity
(Dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH) is an enzyme which catalyzes the fourth enzymatic step, the ubiquinone-mediated oxidation of dihydroorotate to orotate, in de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis. This protein is a mitochondrial protein located on the outer surface of the inner mitochondrial membrane. As an enzyme associated with the electron transport chain, DHODH could link mitochondrial bioenergetics, cell proliferation, ROS production, and apoptosis in certain cell types. DHODH depletion also resulted in increased ROS production, decreased membrane potential and cell growth retardation. Besides, FK506 Binding Protein 8 (FKBP8) has been identified as an interactor of DHODH, thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant human DHODH and recombinant human FKBP8. Briefly, DHODH were diluted serially in PBS, with 0.01% BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100uL were then transferred to FKBP8-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 2h at 37 degree C. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti- DHODH pAb, then aspirated and washed 3 times. After incubation with HRP labelled secondary antibody, wells were aspirated and washed 3 times. With the addition of substrate solution, wells were incubated 15-25 minutes at 37 degree C. Finally, add 50uL stop solution to the wells and read at 450nm immediately. The binding activity of DHODH and FKBP8 was shown in Figure 1, and this effect was in a dose dependent manner.Figure 1.

Uniprot Description
DHODH: Catalyzes the conversion of dihydroorotate to orotate with quinone as electron acceptor. Defects in DHODH are the cause of postaxial acrofacial dysostosis (POADS); also known as Miller syndrome. POADS is characterized by severe micrognathia, cleft lip and/or palate, hypoplasia or aplasia of the posterior elements of the limbs, coloboma of the eyelids and supernumerary nipples. POADS is a very rare disorder: only 2 multiplex families, each consisting of 2 affected siblings born to unaffected, nonconsanguineous parents, have been described among a total of around 30 reported cases. Belongs to the dihydroorotate dehydrogenase family. Type 2 subfamily.

Product Notes
The DHODH dhodh (Catalog #AAA2105191) is an Active Protein produced from E. coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Active Dihydroorotate Dehydrogenase (DHODH) reacts with Homo sapiens (Human) and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Dihydroorotate Dehydrogenase (DHODH) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Cell culture; Activity Assays. (May be suitable for use in other assays to be determined by the end user.). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the DHODH dhodh 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 "Dihydroorotate Dehydrogenase (DHODH), Active 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
