HSD17B10 functions in mitochondrial tRNA maturation. HSD17B10 is part of mitochondrial ribonuclease P, an enzyme composed of MRPP1/RG9MTD1, MRPP2/HSD17B10 and MRPP3/KIAA0391, which cleaves tRNA molecules in their 5''-ends. HSD17B10 interacts with intracellular amyloid-beta, and contributes to the neuronal dysfunction associated with Alzheimer disease.
HSD17B10 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 271 amino acids (12-261 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 28.1 kDa. HSD17B10 protein is fused to a 21 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by standard chromatography.
