Large cysteine-rich periplasmic protein OmcB(omcB), partial, recombinant Chlamydia pneumoniae

Organism: Chlamydia pneumoniae (Chlamydophila pneumoniae). Source: Baculovirus. Expression Region: 41-196aa. Protein Length: Partial. Tag Info: C-terminal 6xHis-tagged. Target Protein Sequence: SAETKPAPVP MTAKKVRLVR RNKQPVEQKS RGAFCDKEFY PCEEGRCQPV EAQQESCYGR LYSVKVNDDC NVEICQSVPE YATVGSPYPI EILAIGKKDC VDVVITQQLP CEAEFVSSDP ETTPTSDGKL VWKIDRLGAG DKCKITVWVK PLKEGC. Purity: Greater than 85% 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: In elementary bodies (EBs, the infectious stage, which is able to survive outside the host cell) provides the structural integrity of the outer envelope through disulfide cross-links with the small cysteine-rich protein and the major outer membrane porin. It has been described in publications as the Sarkosyl-insoluble COMC (Chlamydia outer membrane complex), and serves as the functional equivalent of peptidoglycan (By similarity). Reference: n/a. Function: nan
