PFDN4 Protein, Human (His)

The PFDN4 protein selectively binds to the cytoplasmic chaperone protein (c-CPN) and directs the protein for targeted transfer. It also interacts with nascent peptides and actively promotes correct folding in complex cellular environments. PFDN4 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived PFDN4 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

The PFDN4 protein selectively binds to the cytoplasmic chaperone protein (c-CPN) and directs the protein for targeted transfer. It also interacts with nascent peptides and actively promotes correct folding in complex cellular environments. PFDN4 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived PFDN4 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His labeled tag.

Background

PFDN4 protein exhibits precise binding to cytosolic chaperonin (c-CPN), facilitating the targeted transfer of proteins to this chaperone. Additionally, PFDN4 binds to nascent polypeptide chains, actively promoting their proper folding within a cellular environment characterized by numerous competing pathways for nonnative proteins. As a heterohexamer composed of two PFD-alpha type and four PFD-beta type subunits, PFDN4 plays a crucial role in cellular protein homeostasis. Notably, it interacts with URI1 in a phosphorylation-dependent manner, and this interaction is modulated in a growth-dependent fashion, emphasizing the dynamic nature of its cellular functions.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

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.
