| Formulation |
The FABP1 solution (1mg/1ml) contains phosphate buffered saline (pH7.4), 20% glycerol and 1mM DTT. |
| Purity |
Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description |
FABP1 Rat Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 150 amino acids (1-127) and having a molecular mass of 16.7kDa.FABP1 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background |
FABP1 (Fatty acid binding protein1) encodes the fatty acid binding protein found in liver. FABP1 is composed of ten antiparallel beta strands that form a barrel with a bigger binding pocket than the other FABPs allowing it to accommodate two fatty acid. This protein binds free fatty acids and their coenzyme A derivatives, bilirubin, and some other small molecules in the cytoplasm; it may be involved in intracellular lipid transport and metabolism. |
| Expression host |
Escherichia Coli. |
| Synonyms |
Fatty acid-binding protein, liver, Fatty acid-binding protein 1, Liver-type fatty acid-binding protein, L-FABP, Squalene- and sterol-carrier protein, SCP, Z-protein, p14, Fabp1, Fabplg, FABP1. |
| Reagent Appearance |
Sterile Filtered clear 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. |
