Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) Active Protein | AST active protein
Active Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST)
Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Store at 2-8 degree C for one month.
Aliquot and store at -80 degree C for 12 months.
Stability Test:
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
Bioactivity
(Aspartate transaminase(AST) or aspartate aminotransferase, also known as AspAT/ASAT/AAT or glutamic oxaloacetic transaminase, is a pyridoxal phosphate-dependent transaminase enzyme AST catalyzes the reversible transfer of an α-amino group between aspartate and glutamate and, as such, is an important enzyme in amino acid metabolism. AST is found in the liver, heart, skeletal muscle, kidneys, brain, and red blood cells. In this test, an amino group is transferred of from aspartate to -ketoglutarate. The products of this reversible transamination reaction are oxaloacetate and glutamate. The oxaloacetic acid can be decomposed into pyruvate and carbon dioxide with the present of phenylamine citrate. The activity of aspartate transaminase can be measured by calculating the concentration of the pyruvate. The reaction was performed in adding 10ul different concentation recombinant AST(the blank tube add 10ul phosphate buffer) to 50ul mixture substrate contianing 2mM 2-Ketoglutaric acid, 0.1M L-aspartic acid, in 0.2M phosphate buffer,pH7.4, incubate at 37°C for 1h, then add 10ul phenylamine citrate and 50ul 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine continue incubate at 37°C for 20min, stop the action by adding 500ul 0.4M NaOH, read the OD value at 520nm. Standard curve prepare by double dilute 2uM pyruvate with phosphate bufferr then add 10ul phenylamine citrate and 50ul 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine, incubate at 37°C for 20min and record the OD value at 520nm. One unit of AST is the amount of enzyme that will generate 1umole of pyruvate per minute at pH7.4 at 37°C.)

Product Notes
The AST got1 (Catalog #AAA152060) is an Active Protein produced from E. coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Active Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) reacts with Homo sapiens (Human) and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Activity Assay, Cell Culture. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the AST got1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Aspartate Aminotransferase (AST), Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
