3-Hydroxy-3-Methylglutaryl-Coenzyme A Reductase (HMGCR) Human Recombinant Protein

Transmembrane glycoprotein that is the rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis as well as in the biosynthesis of nonsterol isoprenoids that are essential for normal cell function including ubiquinone and geranylgeranyl proteins.

Small volumes of HMGCR recombinant protein vial(s) may occasionally become entrapped in the seal of the product vial during shipment and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial on a tabletop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid in the container`s cap. Certain products may require to ship with dry ice and additional dry ice fee may apply.

MBS947962 is a recombinant protein targeting HMGCR. Also known as Recombinant Human 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase. Host: E Coli or Yeast or Baculovirus or Mammalian Cell.
