NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene is an enzyme that catalyzes the synthesis of leukotriene C4 by combining leukotriene A4 with reduced glutathione. The encoded protein is found in the outer nuclear membrane and in the peripheral endoplasmic reticulum. Leukotrienes have been implicated as mediators of anaphylaxis and inflammatory conditions such as bronchial asthma in humans. Several transcript variants encoding two different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2015]
Uniprot Description
LTC4S: Catalyzes the conjugation of leukotriene A4 with reduced glutathione to form leukotriene C4. Defects in LTC4S are the cause of leukotriene C4 synthase deficiency (LTC4 synthase deficiency). LTC4 synthase deficiency is a fatal neurometabolic developmental disorder. It is associated with muscular hypotonia, psychomotor retardation, failure to thrive, and microcephaly. Belongs to the MAPEG family.

Product Notes
The Ltc4s ltc4s (Catalog #AAA7019623) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Cell Free Expression and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is 1-150aa; full length protein. This is a recombinant transmembrane protein expressed in a cell-free expression system. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the Ltc4s ltc4s 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: MKDEVALLAT VTLVGVLLQA YFSLQVISAR RAFHVSPPLT SGPPEFERVF RAQVNCSEYF PLFLATLWVA GIFFHEGAAA LCGLFYLFAR LRYFQGYARS AQLRLTPLYA SARALWLLVA MAALGLLVHF LPGTLRTALF RWLQMLLPMA. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Leukotriene C4 synthase (Ltc4s), 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
