Recombinant Human SGT1

Source : Escherichia Coli. SGT1 produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 252 amino acids (115-365.a.a) and having a molecular mass of 30.7kDa. SGT1 is fused to a 21 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. SUGT1 is homolog to yeast protein SGT1, a regulator of the cell cycle which is vital for G1/S and G2/M transitions. SUGT1 holds a CS domain, a SGS domain, a p23 domain and three tetratricopeptide repeats (TPR). SUGT1 protein associates with Skp1 p19 and CUL-1, subunits of the SCF ubiquitin ligase complex, and is believed to take a part in protein degradation. Furthermore, SUGT1 is essential for the kinetochores assembly, and has a role as a co-chaperone for HSP90.
