| Formulation |
PRNP protein solution (0.25mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 1M Urea and 10% glycerol. |
| Purity |
Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description |
PRNP Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 229 amino acids (23-230a.a) and having a molecular mass of 25kDa. GOSR2 is fused to a 21 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background |
Prion protein (PRNP) is a ubiquitous membrane glycoprotein whose abnormal self-replicating, misfolded form is widely believed to cause several central nervous system disorders, together known as Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSE). PRNP contains a highly unstable region of five tandem octapeptide repeat. Mutations in PRNP proteins repeat region as well as elsewhere have been associated with Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease, fatal familial insomnia, Gerstmann-Straussler disease, Huntington disease-like 1, and kuru. |
| Expression host |
E.coli. |
