The ubiquitously expressed NANS enzymatically catalyzes the H2O-dependent formation of N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) and 2-keto-3-deoxy-D-glycero-D-galacto-nononic acid (KDN), both of which are sialic acids. NANS uses N-acetylmannosamine 6-phosphate as a substrate for Neu5Ac synthesis and mannose 6-phosphate as a substrate for KDN synthesis. |
| Synonyms | Sialic acid synthase, N-acetylneuraminate synthase, N-acetylneuraminate-9-phosphate synthase, N-acetylneuraminic acid phosphate synthase, N-acetylneuraminic acid synthase, NANS, SAS. |
| Source | Escherichia Coli. |
| Physical Appearance | Sterile Filtered colorless solution. |
| Formulation | The NANS solution (0.5 mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.0), 0.1M NaCl, 1mM DTT and 10% glycerol. |
| Stability | 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).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. |
