HSPA5/GRP-78 Protein, Human (636a.a, His)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
HSPA5/GRP-78 is an endoplasmic reticulum chaperone that coordinates protein folding and quality control. It cooperates with DNAJC10/ERdj5 to facilitate correct protein folding and participates in the degradation of misfolded proteins, potentially releasing DNAJC10/ERdj5. HSPA5/GRP-78, Human (636a.a, His) is the recombinant human-derived HSPA5/GRP-78 protein, expressed by E. coli, with labeled tag.
- Species: Human
- Source: E. coli
-
Storage:Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Biological Activity
Description
HSPA5/GRP-78 is an endoplasmic reticulum chaperone that coordinates protein folding and quality control. It cooperates with DNAJC10/ERdj5 to facilitate correct protein folding and participates in the degradation of misfolded proteins, potentially releasing DNAJC10/ERdj5. HSPA5/GRP-78, Human (636a.a, His) is the recombinant human-derived HSPA5/GRP-78 protein, expressed by E. coli, with labeled tag.
Background
HSPA5/GRP-78, an endoplasmic reticulum chaperone, assumes a pivotal role in orchestrating protein folding and quality control within the endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Partnering with DNAJC10/ERdj5, it contributes to the proper folding of proteins and participates in the degradation of misfolded counterparts, potentially facilitating the release of DNAJC10/ERdj5 from its substrate. Functioning as a critical suppressor of the unfolded protein response (UPR) mediated by ERN1/IRE1, HSPA5/GRP-78 is recruited to the luminal region of ERN1/IRE1 by DNAJB9/ERdj4 under unstressed conditions, disrupting ERN1/IRE1 dimerization and thereby inactivating ERN1/IRE1. However, the accumulation of misfolded proteins prompts the release of HSPA5/BiP from ERN1/IRE1, allowing for homodimerization and subsequent activation of ERN1/IRE1. Additionally, HSPA5/GRP-78 serves as an auxiliary player in the post-translational transport of small presecretory proteins across the endoplasmic reticulum and is implicated in apoptosis, cell proliferation, and viral infection, acting as a cellular receptor for several flaviviruses, including Dengue virus, Zika virus, and Japanese encephalitis virus.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder
Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, 6% trehalose, pH 7.4.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
