Heat Shock Protein ß-2//HSPB2/MKBP Protein(C-6His) (recombinant human)

Protein Construction: Recombinant Human Heat shock protein beta-2 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Met1-Pro182 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. Sequence: Met 1-Pro182. Fusion tag: C-6His Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per µg as determined by the LAL method. Apparent Molecular Mass: 22 kDa. Protein function: Heat shock protein beta-2(HSPB2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HSPB2 gene. HSPB2 belongs to the superfamily of small heat-shock proteins containing a conservative alpha-crystallin domain at the C-terminal part of the molecule. It is expressed preferentially in the heart and skeletal muscle. HSPB2 has been shown to interact with TRAF6, HSPB8, Myotonic dystrophy protein kinase and CRYAB. HSPB2 regulates Myotonic Dystrophy Protein Kinase, which plays an important role in maintenance of muscle structure and function. Protein function: May regulate the kinase DMPK.
