PRPS1, also known as ribose-phosphate pyrophosphokinase 1, is ubiquitously expressed in human tissues. This enzyme catalyzes the phosphoribosylation of ribose 5-phosphate to 5-phosphoribosyl-1-pyrophosphate, which is necessary for purine metabolism and nucleotide biosynthesis. Recombinant human PRPS1 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
