| Short Description : | Recombinant-Human COMT-N-His protein was developed from e. coli and has a target region of N-His. For use in research applications. |
| Formulation: | Lyophilized from a solution in PBS pH 7.4, 1mM EDTA, 4% Trehalose, 1% Mannitol. |
| Storage Instruction: | Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles. Store at 2 to 8°C for frequent use. Store at-20 to-80°C for twelve months from the date of receipt. |
| Gene Symbol: | COMT |
| Gene ID: | 1312 |
| Uniprot ID: | COMT_HUMAN |
| Immunogen Region: | Gly52-Pro271 |
| Immunogen: | Homo sapiens (Human) |
| Post Translational Modifications | The N-terminus is blocked. |
| Function | Catalyzes the O-methylation, and thereby the inactivation, of catecholamine neurotransmitters and catechol hormones. Also shortens the biological half-lives of certain neuroactive drugs, like L-DOPA, alpha-methyl DOPA and isoproterenol. |
