Patent ID: 10619183

Abstract:
Provided is a composition by which glycated hemoglobin can be measured even in the presence of a stronger surfactant than a conventional case. Also provided is a buffer and/or stabilizer which maintains the residual activity of an amadoriase or lowers a reduction of residual activity. The present invention provides a composition for use in measuring glycated hemoglobin containing an amadoriase having substitution of one or more amino acid residues at a position(s) corresponding to an amino acid(s) selected from the group consisting of position 262, position 257, position 249, position 253, position 337, position 340, position 232, position 129, position 132, position 133, position 44, position 256, position 231 and position 81 of an amadoriase derived from the genus Coniochaeta and represented by SEQ ID No: 1 or 3, and having residual activity even in the presence of a surfactant. The present invention also provides a composition and kit for use in measuring glycated hemoglobin, comprising a specific stabilizer and/or a buffer. The present invention can provide an enzyme and a composition for use in measuring glycated hemoglobin, excellent in storage stability even if they are exposed to a surfactant.
