TDC protein plays a key role in amino acid metabolism by catalyzing the decarboxylation of L-tyrosine to produce tyramine. TDC is specific and does not utilize other aromatic L-amino acids such as L-phenylalanine, L-tryptophan, and L-glutamate as substrates. tdc Protein, Levilactobacillus brevis is the recombinant tdc protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free.

Description

TDC protein plays a key role in amino acid metabolism by catalyzing the decarboxylation of L-tyrosine to produce tyramine. TDC is specific and does not utilize other aromatic L-amino acids such as L-phenylalanine, L-tryptophan, and L-glutamate as substrates. tdc Protein, Levilactobacillus brevis is the recombinant tdc protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free.

Background

TDC protein is an enzyme that catalyzes the decarboxylation of L-tyrosine to produce tyramine. This enzymatic activity is essential for the conversion of tyrosine to tyramine, a process that contributes to the biosynthesis of various bioactive amines. Importantly, TDC exhibits specificity for L-tyrosine and is unable to utilize other aromatic L-amino acids such as L-phenylalanine, L-tryptophan, and L-glutamate as substrates. TDC can also decarboxylate L-dopa (L-dopa), a drug used to treat Parkinson's disease, to produce dopamine in vitro. This indicates the potential impact of TDC in neurotransmitter synthesis and pharmaceutical applications, especially in the treatment of Parkinson's disease.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

  • Reconstitution Calculator

  • Dilution Calculator

  • Specific Activity Calculator

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×
C1   V1   C2   V2

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
