Human tissue transglutaminase, R580A mutant

- Overview
  - His6-rhTG2-Arg580Ala is based on the TGM2-allele from I.M.A.G.E.-clone IMAGp958L121020 isolated from neuroblastoma cells of the human brain (Val224-allele, Kanchan et al., Biochem. J. 2013, 455:261–72).It is N-terminally fused to a hexahistidine-tag resulting in the encoded N-terminal amino acid sequence MAHHHHHHAEELV. At position 580 Arginine has been replaced by Alanine. Please note that numeration corresponds to the wild type protein without hexahistidine-tag. His6-rhTG2 is produced in E. coli and purified by ion metal chelating chromatography to more than 95% purity.
