Biological Activity

Description

IZUMO1 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived IZUMO1, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag. ,

Background

IZUMO1 is an essential sperm cell-surface protein that functions in fertilization by acting as a ligand for the IZUMO1R/JUNO receptor on eggs. The IZUMO1:IZUMO1R/JUNO interaction represents a necessary adhesion event between sperm and egg, though it is insufficient for cell fusion and likely doesn't directly act as a membrane fusogen. During fertilization, IZUMO1 also serves as a ligand for the human-specific oolemma epitope FCRL3/MAIA (replacing IZUMO1R/JUNO as receptor), enabling species-specific gamete fusion. It plays a critical role in sperm-oolemma binding prior to plasma membrane fusion. By similarity, IZUMO1 can mediate cell-cell fusion in cultured mammalian cells independently of its binding to IZUMO1R/JUNO.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

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).

Storage & Stability

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.

Shipping

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
