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.
A 16aa peptide sequence near the N-terminus of human DDC.
Applications: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.
Storage and Stability:Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 6 months after receipt at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
