Biological Activity

Description

Glycoprotein E/gE proteins bind to the host cell entry receptor IDE. glycoprotein E/gE Protein, Varicella zoster virus (HEK293, His) is the recombinant virus-derived glycoprotein E/gE protein, expressed by HEK293, with C-His labeled tag.

Background

Envelope glycoprotein E (gE) functions as a key player in the viral life cycle by binding to the potential host cell entry receptor IDE. Particularly crucial in epithelial cells, the gE/gI heterodimer is essential for the efficient cell-to-cell spread of the virus, facilitating the sorting of nascent virions to cell junctions. Once positioned at these junctions, rapid virus dissemination to adjacent cells occurs through interactions with cellular receptors that accumulate at these sites. Additionally, gE/gI is implicated in basolateral spread in polarized cells. In neuronal cells, the gE/gI heterodimer plays a vital role in the anterograde spread of the infection throughout the host nervous system. Teaming up with US9, this heterodimer is involved in the sorting and transport of viral structural components toward axon tips, contributing to the orchestrated progression of the infection.

Verified Bioactivity

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH7.4 with 10% trehalose as protectant.

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.
