Safety & Handling
Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.
This protein was produced in Mammalian (HEK293). Expression system selection determines post-translational processing, disulfide bond formation, and co-factor incorporation — all of which affect enzymatic activity. Insect cell (Sf9) systems are preferred for kinases and multi-subunit enzymes that require phosphorylation or chaperone assistance; E. coli is used for structurally simpler proteins.
This protein spans amino acids 30-390 (end). Confirm the region includes your domain of interest — the active site, binding pocket, or substrate recognition sequence — before placing your order. Refer to the UniProt database for domain annotation.
≥98% by SDS-PAGE as determined by SDS-PAGE. A gel image is provided with each lot. BPS Bioscience performs rigorous QC on each lot, including purity assessment and functional activity testing where applicable. Contact technical support if purity ≥99% is required for biophysical measurements.
Useful for cell culture and for the study of signaling and apoptotic pathways. Refer to the product datasheet for validated protocols and recommended assay conditions. Contact BioHippo technical support for application-specific guidance.
>6 months at -80°C (as a solid). Store reconstituted protein in aliquots at -80°C for up to 3 months. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles — prepare single-use working aliquots. Add BSA or glycerol to aliquots if storing diluted enzyme is necessary. Typical stability is at least 6 months at −80°C.
