| Description |
ASF1B Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 210 amino acids (1-202 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 23.4kDa.ASF1B is fused to an 8 amino acid His-tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background |
ASF1 Anti-Silencing Function 1 Homolog B (ASF1B) belongs to the H3/H4 family of histone chaperone proteins and is similar to the anti-silencing function-1 protein in yeast. ASF1B is the substrate of the tousled-like kinase family of cell cycle-regulated kinases, and may have a crucial role in modulating the nucleosome structure of chromatin by guaranteeing a regular supply of histones at sites of nucleosome assembly. ASF1B cooperates with CAF-1 (chromatin assembly factor 1) to stimulate replication-dependent chromatin assembly. ASF1B is highly expressed in the testis and at lower levels in colon, small intestine and thymus. ASF1B is necessary for spermatogenesis. |
| Expression host |
Escherichia Coli. |

Sterile filtered colorless solution. |
| Stability |
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. |
