Product Description
| Description | Inorganic Pyrophosphatase catalyzes the hydrolysis of inorganic pyrophosphate into two orthophosphates. The enzyme requires a divalent metal cation with Mg2+ for activity |
| Applications |
|
| Source | Purified from a recombinant E. coli strain carrying the E coli inorganic pyrophosphatase (ppa) gene |
| Components |
|
| Unit Definition | One unit is the amount of enzyme that will generate 1 µmol of phosphate per minute from inorganic pyrophosphate under standard reaction conditions (a 10 minute reaction at 25°C in 20 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.2, 2 mM MgCl2 and 2 mM PPi). |
| Quality Control |
The absence of endo-, exodeoxyribonucleases, phosphatases, and ribonucleases is confirmed by appropriate quality tests. |
| Storage | -20°C. |
