Properties
Description
It is an recombinant Neisseria meningitides β1,3-N-acetylhexaminyltransferase (LgtA) produced in E. coli. This product can be used to study the mode of action of the enzyme and its potential inhibitors, and can also be used as a glycoengineering tool to modify glycoproteins in vitro.
Unit Definition
One unit will catalyze the formation of 1 μmol GlcNAcβ(1-3)Lac from UDP-GlcNAc and lactose per min at 37°C.
Source
Neisseria meningitides
Purity
>95%, determined by SDS-PAGE.
Applications
Study the mode of action of the enzyme and its potential inhibitors and as a glycoengineering tool to modify glycoproteins in vitro.
