ACAD8 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 416 amino acids (23-415) and having a molecular mass of 45.1kDa. ACAD8 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Acyl CoA dehydrogenase is the enzymeused to catalyzethe first step of oxidationin Fatty acid metabolism. Acyl-coenzyme A (CoA) dehydrogenases (ACADs) are a family of mitochondrial enzymes that catalyze the first dehydrogenation step in the bets-oxidation of fatty acyl-CoA derivatives. Several human ACADs exist and all ACADs catalyze the same initial dehydrogenation of the substrate at the beta-carbon atom and require electron transfer flavoprotein as an alectron acceptor. The predicted 415-amino acid ACAD8 protein contains many of the residues conserved in most other ACADs, including an active site glutamic acid residue and residues important for tetramer formation.
