Product Name :
DHS (L87) Peptide Applications :
Blocking Background :
Deoxyhypusine synthase (DHS) is crucial for the posttranslational formation of hypusine, a modification of a specific lysine residue in eukaryotic initiation factor 5A (eIF-5A). Hypusine is formed by posttranslational modifications involving two enzymatic steps catalyzed by DHS and deoxyhypusine hydroxylase (DOHH). eIF-5A is essential for eukaryotic cell proliferation. DHS, which belongs to the deoxyhypusine synthase family of proteins, is important for the first step in the hypusine biosynthesis pathway. It acts as a catalyst for the NAD-dependent oxidative cleavage of spermidine and the ensuing transfer of the butylamine moiety of spermidine to the eIF-5A protein, to create the intermediate deoxyhypusine residue. Alternative Name :
Deoxyhypusine synthase; DHPS; DS Swiss-Prot :
P49366 Product :
1 mg/ml in DI water. Purification&Purity :
Synthetic peptide DHS (L87). (Note: the amino acid sequence is proprietary). The purity is > 98%. Storage&Stability :
Store at 4°C short term. Aliquot and store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze-thaw cycles. Specificity :
This peptide can be used with studies using BS3847 DHS (L87) pAb.
