Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 5A-1 (HYP2), Saccharomyces cerevisiae, recombinant

Organism: Saccharomyces cerevisiae (strain ATCC 204508 / S288c) (Baker's yeast). Source: E.coli. Expression Region: 2-157aa. Protein Length: Full Length of Mature Protein. Tag Info: N-terminal 6xHis-SUMO-tagged. Target Protein Sequence: SDEEHTFETA DAGSSATYPM QCSALRKNGF VVIKSRPCKI VDMSTSKTGK HGHAKVHLVA IDIFTGKKLE DLSPSTHNME VPVVKRNEYQ LLDIDDGFLS LMNMDGDTKD DVKAPEGELG DSLQTAFDEG KDLMVTIISA MGEEAAISFK EAARTD. 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: mRNA-binding protein involved in translation elongation. Has an important function at the level of mRNA turnover, probably acting downstream of decapping. Involved in actin dynamics and cell cycle progression, mRNA decay and probably in a pathway involved in stress response and maintenance of cell wall integrity. Essential for polarized growth, a process necessary for G1/S transition. May mediate large range of effects of the polyamine spermidine in the cell.
