Creatininase, Microorganism

• CAT Number: I041894
• CAS Number: 9025-13-2
• Purity: ≥95%

Creatininase (EC 3.5.2.10) (Creatinine amidohydrolase; CAH), namely creatinine amidohydrolase, from Pseudomonas putida, is a homohexameric enzyme commonly used in biochemical research. Creatininase acts on carbon-nitrogen bonds other than peptide bonds, and can catalyze the hydrolysis of creatinine to creatine, which can then be metabolized by creatinase to urea and sarcosine[1].
