Related Product Information for DDC enzyme
DDC (EC 1.1.128) belongs to the family group II Decarboxylase (DDC, GAD, HDC and TYRD). DDC catalyzes the formation of tryptamine from L-tyrosine. It also acts on 5-hydroxy-LO-tryptophan and dihydroxy-L-Phenylalanine (DOPA). Human DDC (480aa, chromosome 7p11) is a homodimer in the native state. it requires pyridoxal phosphate as a cofactor.

Product Notes
The DDC ddc (Catalog #AAA14842) is an Enzyme produced from Human synthetic peptide and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's Aromatic L-Amino Acid Decarboxylase can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, ELISA (EIA). ELISA: Use at 1ug/ml to coat plates and detect with antibodies. Note: Not suitable for Western Blot due to low MW (< 3kD). Other applications not tested. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the DDC ddc 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 "Aromatic L-Amino Acid Decarboxylase, Enzyme" 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
