FKBP1B, Recombinant, Human, aa1-108, His-tag (Peptidyl-prolyl Cis-trans Isomerase FKBP1B, PPIase FKB

FKBP1B, is a member of the immunophilin protein family which plays a role in immunoregulation and basic cellular processes involving protein folding and trafficking. This protein is a cis-trans prolyl isomerase that binds the immunosuppressants FK506 (tacrolimus) and rapamycin (sirolimus). It is highly similar to the FK506-binding protein 1A. Its physiological role is thought to be in excitation-contraction coupling in cardiac muscle. Source: Recombinant corresponding to aa1-108 from human FKBP1B, fused to His-tag at N-terminal expressed in E.coli.
