Product Overview
Tag | His |
Host Species | Human |
Accession | P43251 |
Synonym | BTD |
Background | Biotinidase, also known as biotinase and BTD, is a ubiquitous mammalian cell enzyme which expressed at high levels in the liver, serum, and kidney. Its primary function is to cleave biotin from biocytin, preserving the pool of biotin for use as a cofactor for biotin dependent enzymes, namely the 4 human carboxylases. Biotinidase also recycles biotin from enzymes in the body that use it as a helper component in order to function. These enzymes, known ascarboxylases, are important in the processing offats,carbohydrates, andproteins. Biotin is attached to these carboxylase enzymes through anamino acid(the building material of proteins) calledlysine, forming a complex calledbiocytin. |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the human BTD (P43251) (Met1-Asp543) with a C-terminal His tag was expressed. |
Source | HEK293 |
Predicted N Terminal | Ala 42 |

Molecular Weight | The recombinant human BTD comprises 513 a.a. and has a predicted molecular mass of 58.2 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the protein is approximately 66-76 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions. |
Purity | >95% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method |
Bioactivity | Measured by its ability to hydrolyze biocytin to lysine and biotin. The specific activity is >500pmol/min/ug. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.. |
Stability | The recombinant proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70°C. |
