Alanine dehydrogenase, expressed in E. coli

• CAT Number: I041038
• CAS Number: 9029-06-5
• Purity: ≥95%

Alanine dehydrogenase, expressed in E. coli（Cat No.:I041038）, is an enzyme that catalyzes the reversible conversion of L-alanine to pyruvate, with the concomitant reduction of NAD+ to NADH. This enzyme plays a crucial role in amino acid metabolism, specifically in the catabolism of alanine, which is important for energy production and nitrogen balance in cells. When expressed in E. coli, alanine dehydrogenase is often used in laboratory studies for protein purification, enzyme assays, and biochemical research. Its application extends to various fields, including metabolic engineering, biofuel production, and enzyme-based diagnostics.
