Since L-DOPA is regularly used to treat the symptoms of Parkinson's disease, the catalytic pathway is of particular research interest. Defects of DDC are associated with severe developmental delay, oculogyric crises (OGC), as well as autosomal recessive disorder AADC deficiency, an early onset inborn error in neurotransmitter metabolism which can lead to catecholamine and serotonin deficiency.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSequence: Met 1-Glu 480\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePurity: \u0026gt; 90 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFormulation: Lyophilized from sterile 50mM Tris, 100mM NaCl, pH 8.0, 20% glycerol, 3mM DTT\u003cbr\u003e\nNormally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.\u003cbr\u003e\nPlease refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReconstitution: Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eEndotoxin: \u0026lt; 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eCalculated MW: 55.2 kDa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eObserved MW: 50 kDa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eStorage: Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80℃.
