Introduction
Mercaptopyruvate Sulfurtransferase (MPST) catalyzes the transfer of a sulfur ion from 3-mercaptopyruvate to cyanide or other thiol compounds. MPST might be involved in cysteine degradation and cyanide detoxification. The MPST enzyme is regulated by oxidative stress and thioredoxin. In oxidative stress conditions, the catalytic cysteine site is transformed to a sulfenate which inhibits the MPST enzyme activity. The reduced thioredoxin cleaves an intersubunit disulfide bond to activate the redox switch and reactivate the enzyme. A deficiency in MPST activity is implicated in a rare inheritable condition known as MCDU (mercaptolactate-cysteine disulfiduria).
Description
MPST Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 321 amino acids (1-297) and having a molecular mass of 35kDa.
MPST is fused to a 24 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
