Aspartate aminotransferase, Genetically engineered bacteria

• CAT Number: I041867
• CAS Number: 9000-97-9
• Purity: ≥95%

Aspartate aminotransferase, Genetically engineered bacteria (EC 2.6.1.1) (AST) is a transaminase enzyme, is often used in biochemical studies. Aspartate aminotransferase catalyzes aspartate and alpha-ketoglutarate converts to oxaloacetate and glutamate. Aspartate aminotransferase can be found in cerebrospinal fluid, exudates, and transudates[1].
This product can be used as a quality control product for ast kits and as an antigen to prepare anti-cAST antibodies.
