Flavin-Containing Monooxygenase-5, Microsomes human, recombinant, expressed in baculovirus infected insect cells, buffered aqueous solution (2.5 mg in 100 mM Potassium Phosphate Buffer)

Synonyms: FMO-5

Storage: -70C

UNSPSC Code: 12352204

Application: FMO5 is the only FMO isoform expressed in both adult and fetal human liver.

Biochem/physiol Actions: FMO's are responsible for catalyzing the oxygenation of a variety of xenobiotic and drug compounds including environmental pollutants and carcinogens, which demonstrate a nucleophilic nitrogen, sulfur, selenium, and phosphorous-containing moiety associated with their respective oxides. These enzymes are classified as Phase I or oxidative drug metabolism enzymes. FMO5 is the only FMO isoform expressed in both adult and fetal human liver.

Physical form: Solution in 100 mM potassium phosphate buffer, pH 7.4.
