SP-17 Protein, Human (His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

The SP-17 protein is an important sperm surface-binding protein that promotes high-affinity sperm attachment to the zona pellucida, indicating its critical role in fertilization. It is involved in the binding of the zona pellucida and carbohydrates, emphasizing its importance in the fertilization process. SP-17 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived SP-17 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

The SP-17 protein is an important sperm surface-binding protein that promotes high-affinity sperm attachment to the zona pellucida, indicating its critical role in fertilization. It is involved in the binding of the zona pellucida and carbohydrates, emphasizing its importance in the fertilization process. SP-17 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived SP-17 protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His labeled tag.

Background

SP-17 protein serves as a crucial sperm surface binding protein, facilitating the high-affinity attachment of spermatozoa to the zona pellucida. Its role suggests involvement in the binding of zona pellucida and carbohydrates, emphasizing its significance in the fertilization process. The protein exists in a homodimeric form and may potentially interact with ROPN1, contributing to the intricate molecular interactions essential for successful sperm-egg binding during fertilization.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCL, pH 8.0, 8% trehalose.
Note: For SPR assay, please replace the buffer. Primary amine components (e.g., Tris, imidazole) can affect protein-coupled chips.

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.

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.
