Product Overview
Tag | His&GST |
Host Species | Human |
Accession | O75936 |
Synonym | BBH, BBOX, G-BBH, gamma-BBH |
Background | BBOX1, also known as gamma-BBH, belongs to thegamma-BBH/TMLD family. It is highly expressed in kidney and moderately expressed in liver. BBOX1 catalyzes the formation of L-carnitine from gamma-butyrobetaine, the last step in the L-carnitine biosynthetic pathway. Carnitine is essential for the transport of activated fatty acids across the mitochondrial membrane during mitochondrial beta-oxidation. BBOX1 is an inhibition target for mildronate which can be used to treatanginaandmyocardial infarction. Mildronate may also be beneficial for the treatment ofneurological disorder,diabetes, andseizures andalcohol intoxication. |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the human BBOX1 (O75936) (Met1-Asn387) was fused with the N-terminal His-tagged GST tag at the N-terminus. |
Source | Baculovirus-Insect Cells |
Predicted N Terminal | Met |
AA Sequence | Met1-Asn387 |
