DNA dC->dU-editing enzyme APOBEC-3A (APOBEC3A), human, recombinant

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human). Source: Yeast. Expression Region: 1-199aa. Protein Length: Full Length. Tag Info: C-terminal 6xHis-tagged. Target Protein Sequence: MEASPASGPR HLMDPHIFTS NFNNGIGRHK TYLCYEVERL DNGTSVKMDQ HRGFLHNQAK NLLCGFYGRH AELRFLDLVP SLQLDPAQIY RVTWFISWSP CFSWGCAGEV RAFLQENTHV RLRIFAARIY DYDPLYKEAL QMLRDAGAQV SIMTYDEFKH CWDTFVDHQG CPFQPWDGLD EHSQALSGRL RAILQNQGN. Purity: Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Endotoxin: Not test. Biological Activity: n/a. Form: Liquid or Lyophilized powder. Buffer: If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0. Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20 °C/-80 °C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference. Storage: The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. Notes: Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4 °C for up to one week. Relevance: DNA deaminase (cytidine deaminase) with restriction activity against viruses, foreign DNA and mobility of retrotransposons. Exhibits antiviral activity against adeno-associated virus (AAV) and human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1) and may inhibit the mobility of LTR and non-LTR retrotransposons. Selectively targets single-stranded DNA and can deaminate both methylcytosine and cytosine in foreign DNA. Can induce somatic hypermutation in the nuclear and mitochondrial DNA. May also play a role in the epigenetic regulation of gene expression through the process of active DNA demethylation.
