General description
T4-phage β−glucosyltransferase, also known as UDP glucose-DNA β-glucosyltransferase, (Genbank Accession No. NP_049658) amino acids 1-351(end) with C-terminal His-tag, MW= 41.6 kDa, expressed in Escherichia coli.
Application
Useful for the differentiation of hydroxymethylcytosine (HMC) from methylcytosine in DNA, via glucosylating HMC and protecting HMC from endonuclease cleavage.
Biochem/physiol Actions
T4-phage β-glucosyltransferase is involved in the transfer of glucose from uridine diphosphoglucose (UDP-Glc) to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-HMC) in double-stranded DNA of the T4-phage. Ions such as Mg2+, Mn2+ and Ca2+ activate this enzyme.
Physical form
Formulated in 200 mM imidazole and 20% glycerol.
