SKU TP720713

Purified recombinant protein of Human myelin protein zero (MPZ)

Product Data

• Species: Human
• Expression Host: HEK293
• Expression cDNA Clone or AA Sequence:
  Protein Sequence

  Ile30-Arg153
• Tag: C-His
• Predicted MW: 15.2 kDa
• Concentration: lot specific
• Purity: >95% as determined by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining
• Buffer: Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
• Endotoxin: Endotoxin level is < 0.1 ng/µg of protein (< 1 EU/µg)
• Reconstitution Method: Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O. It is not recommended to reconstitute a concentration less than 100 µg/ml. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
• Storage: Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.
• Stability: Stable for at least 6 months from date of receipt under proper storage and handling conditions.
• Shipping: Ambient

• Summary: This gene is specifically expressed in Schwann cells of the peripheral nervous system and encodes a type I transmembrane glycoprotein that is a major structural protein of the peripheral myelin sheath. The encoded protein contains a large hydrophobic extracellular domain and a smaller basic intracellular domain, which are essential for the formation and stabilization of the multilamellar structure of the compact myelin. Mutations in this gene are associated with autosomal dominant form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 1 (CMT1B) and other polyneuropathies, such as Dejerine-Sottas syndrome (DSS) and congenital hypomyelinating neuropathy (CHN). A recent study showed that two isoforms are produced from the same mRNA by use of alternative in-frame translation termination codons via a stop codon readthrough mechanism.
