Description
The enzyme, characterized from the thermophilic archaeon Thermococcus kodakarensis, synthesizes the branched-chain polyamine N4-bis(aminopropyl)spermidine, which is required for cell growth at high-temperature. When spermine is used as substrate, the enzyme forms N4-aminopropylspermine.
Form
Liquid or lyophilized powder
Storage
Store it at +4 ºC for short term. For long term storage, store it at -20 ºC~-80 ºC.
Reaction
2 S-adenosyl 3-(methylthio)propylamine + spermidine = 2 S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine + N4-bis(aminopropyl)spermidine (overall reaction); (1a) S-adenosyl 3-(methylthio)propylamine + spermidine = S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine + N4-aminopropylspermidine; (1b) S-adenosyl 3-(methylthio)propylamine + N4-aminopropylspermidine = S-methyl-5'-thioadenosine + N4-bis(aminopropyl)spermidine
