Form:

Liquid or Lyophilized powder

Buffer:

If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

Function:

Involvement in disease:

Relevance:

Involved in pyrimidine base degradation. Catalyzes physiologically the reduction of uracil to 5,6-dihydrouracil (DHU) by using NADH as a specific cosubstrate. It also catalyzes the reverse reaction and the reduction of thymine to 5,6-dihydrothymine (DHT).

Reconstitution:

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20℃/-80℃. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.
