Inorganic Pyrophosphatase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Recombinant

Pyrophosphatase (or inorganic pyrophosphatase) is an enzyme (EC 3.6.1.1) that catalyzes the conversion of one molecule of pyrophosphate to two phosphate ions. This is a highly exergonic reaction, and therefore can be coupled to unfavorable biochemical transformations in order to drive these transformations to completion. The functionality of this enzyme plays a critical role in lipid metabolism (including lipid synthesis and degradation), calcium absorption and bone formation, and DNA synthesis,as well as other biochemical transformations.http://www.creative-enzymes.com/product/Inorganic-Pyrophosphatase-From-Saccharomyces-Cerevisiae-Recombinant_3483.html
