Tubulin cofactor A Protein, Human (Tag Free)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

The tubulin cofactor A protein is a key tubulin folding protein that initiates the tubulin folding pathway within the supercomplex (cofactors A to E). Cofactors A and D capture tubulin and stabilize it in a quasi-native state. Tubulin cofactor A Protein, Human (Tag Free) is the recombinant human-derived Tubulin cofactor A protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free.

Biological Activity

Description

The tubulin cofactor A protein is a key tubulin folding protein that initiates the tubulin folding pathway within the supercomplex (cofactors A to E). Cofactors A and D capture tubulin and stabilize it in a quasi-native state. Tubulin cofactor A Protein, Human (Tag Free) is the recombinant human-derived Tubulin cofactor A protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free.

Background

Tubulin cofactor A Protein takes on a crucial role as a tubulin-folding protein, actively participating in the initial stage of the tubulin folding pathway. It is part of a supercomplex composed of cofactors A to E. Cofactors A and D play a pivotal role by capturing and stabilizing tubulin in a quasi-native conformation. The interaction of cofactor E with the cofactor D-tubulin complex facilitates the subsequent binding to cofactor C, leading to the release of tubulin polypeptides committed to adopting the native state. In orchestrating these intricate steps, Tubulin cofactor A Protein emerges as a key player in the early phases of tubulin folding, contributing to the formation of a functional and stable tubulin structure.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 50 mM Tris-HCl, 300 mM NaCl, pH 7.4.
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. 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.
