Related Product Information for RFK recombinant protein
Background: Flavokinase is a member of the transferases family, specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups (phosphotransferases) with an alcohol group as acceptor. Flavokinase is an essential enzyme that catalyzes the phosphorylation of riboflavin (vitamin B2) to form flavin mononucleotide (FMN), an obligatory step in vitamin B2 utilization and flavin cofactor synthesis. It has been proposed that TNF, through the activation of the flavokinase gene, enhances the incorporation of FAD in NADPH oxidase enzymes, which is a critical step for the assembly and activation of NADPH oxidase.

Description: A DNA sequence encoding the mature form of human RFK (Q969G6) (Met1-His155) was expressed with a polyhistide tag at the N-terminus.

Product Notes

The RFK rfk (Catalog #AAA2545028) is a Recombinant Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The recombinant human RFK consists of 170 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 19.5 KDa. It migrates as an approximately 20 KDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the RFK rfk 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 "Flavokinase / RFK, 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.
