ssPA Protein, E. coli (His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

The ssPA protein specifically forms an equimolar complex with RNA polymerase holoenzyme (RNAP), thereby distinguishing its interaction preference from the core enzyme. ssPA is primarily synthesized during amino acid starvation and accounts for more than 50% of the total protein produced under these conditions. ssPA Protein, E. coli (His) is the recombinant E. coli-derived ssPA protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

The ssPA protein specifically forms an equimolar complex with RNA polymerase holoenzyme (RNAP), thereby distinguishing its interaction preference from the core enzyme. ssPA is primarily synthesized during amino acid starvation and accounts for more than 50% of the total protein produced under these conditions. ssPA Protein, E. coli (His) is the recombinant E. coli-derived ssPA protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-His labeled tag.

Background

The ssPA (stringent starvation protein A) forms an equimolar complex with the RNA polymerase holoenzyme (RNAP) but does not associate with the core enzyme. Synthesized predominantly during amino acid starvation, ssPA constitutes over 50% of the total protein synthesized under such conditions. Its role is crucial in orchestrating the transition from P1 early to P1 late gene expression, suggesting its involvement in regulating gene expression during specific cellular states. Remarkably, the functional interchangeability observed between Rnk and SspA with the Pseudomonas aeruginosa alginate regulatory gene algR2 underscores the regulatory versatility of ssPA-like proteins in bacterial systems.

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.
