P49675

Gene Accession:

BC010550

Purity:

>85%, as determined by Coomassie blue stained SDS-PAGE

Expression system:

Escherichia coli

Background:

The protein encoded by this gene plays a key role in the acute regulation of steroid hormone synthesis by enhancing the conversion of cholesterol into pregnenolone. This protein permits the cleavage of cholesterol into pregnenolone by mediating the transport of cholesterol from the outer mitochondrial membrane to the inner mitochondrial membrane.
