Data sheet
| Formulation | TWF1 protein solution (0.25mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.0), 40% glycerol, 0.15M NaCl and 1mM DTT. |
| Purity | Greater than 80% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description | TWF1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 277 amino acids (1-252 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 31.5kDa. TWF1 is fused to a 25 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background | Twinfilin (TWF1) is a ubiquitous actin-monomer-binding protein which is composed of two ADF-homology domains. Twinfilin forms a 1:1 complex with ADP-actin-monomers, prevents nucleotide exchange on actin monomers and blocks assembly of the monomer into filaments. TWF1 is composed of 2 ADF/cofilin-like (ADF-H) domains joined by a short linker region and followed by a C-terminal tail of approximately 20 residues. The 2 ADF-H domains are approximately 20% homologous to ADF/cofilin and to each other. TWF1 protein may be an actin monomer-binding protein, and its localization to cortical G-actin-rich structures might be regulated by the small GTPase RAC1. |
| Expression host | E.coli. |
| Synonyms | Twinfilin-1, Protein A6, Protein tyrosine kinase 9, TWF1, PTK9. |
| Reagent Appearance | 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. |
