Formulation |
The NDUFS2 solution (0.25mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 0.4M Urea and 10% glycerol. |
Purity |
Greater than 80% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
Description |
NDUFS2 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 410 amino acids (77-463a.a) and having a molecular mass of 46.5kDa. NDUFS2 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
Protein Background |
NDUFS2 is a core subunit of the mitochondrial membrane respiratory chain NADH dehydrogenase (Complex I) which is a part of the minimal assembly required for catalysis. Complex I takes part in the transfer of electrons from NADH to the respiratory chain. Histidine NADH Dehydrogenase Fe-S Protein 2 (NDUFS2) is required for catalytic activity. Imperfections in NDUFS2 are the source of complex I mitochondrial respiratory chain deficiency, which is characterized by many symptoms including liver failure, cardiomyopathy and neurodegeneration. |
Expression host |
Escherichia Coli. |
Synonyms |
CI-49 , NADH dehydrogenase [ubiquinone] iron-sulfur protein 2, mitochondrial, Complex I-49kD, CI-49kD, NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase 49 kDa subunit, NDUFS2. |
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. |
