Hexokinase 2 is the predominant form found in skeletal muscle. It localizes to the outer membrane of mitochondria. Expression of this gene is insulin-responsive, and studies in rat sµggest that it is involved in the increased rate of glycolysis seen in rapidly growing cancer cells. |
| Synonyms | Hexokinase-2, EC 2.7.1.1, HK2, Hexokinase type II, HK II, Muscle form hexokinase, HXK2, DKFZp686M1669. |
| Source | Escherichia Coli. |
| Physical Appearance | Sterile filtered colorless solution. |
| Formulation | The protein (1mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl pH8.0 and 10% glycerol. |
| Amino Acid Sequence | MGSSHHHHHH SSGLVPRGSH MIASHLLAYF FTELNHDQVQ KVDQYLYHMR LSDETLLEIS KRFRKEMEKG LGATTHPTAA VKMLPTFVRS TPDGTEHGEF LALDLGGTNF RVLWVKVTDN GLQKVEMENQ IYAIPEDIMR GSGTQLFDHI AECLANFMDK LQIKDKKLPL GFTFSFPCHQTKLDESFLVS WTKGFKSSGV EGRDVVALIR KAIQRRGDFD IDIVAVVNDT VGT |
| Purity | Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Biological Activity | Specific activity is 3-4 units/ml obtained by measuring the increase of NADPH in absorbance at 340 nm resulting from the reduction of NADP. In the coupled mode, one unit will produce 1.0 umole of NADPH per minute as glucose is phosphorylated by ATP at pH 7.4 at 30C. |
| Usage | NeoBiolab's products are furnished for LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. The product may not be used as drµgs, agricultural or pesticidal products, food additives or household chemicals. |
| Storage | Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks.Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles. |
