Product Specs

Introduction
CHMP2B, a member of the vacuolar sorting protein family, plays a crucial role in the ESCRT-III complex. This complex is vital for sorting endosomal articles into multivesicular bodies (MVBs) and is essential for their formation. CHMP2B is commonly found in various tissues including the brain, heart, skeletal muscle, small intestine, pancreas, lung, placenta, and leukocytes.
Description
Recombinant human CHMP2B, produced in E. coli, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain consisting of 233 amino acids (1-213) with a molecular weight of 26.1 kDa. This protein is fused to a 20 amino acid His-Tag at the N-terminus and purified using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
A clear, colorless solution that has been sterilized by filtration.
Formulation
CHMP2B protein is supplied at a concentration of 1mg/ml in a buffer containing 20mM Tris-HCL (pH 8), 0.1M NaCl, 2mM DTT, and 20% Glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), the protein should be kept at 4°C. For extended storage, it is recommended to freeze the protein at -20°C. To ensure optimal stability during long-term storage, consider adding a carrier protein such as 0.1% HSA or BSA. It is crucial to avoid repeated freezing and thawing of the protein.
Purity
Analysis by SDS-PAGE indicates a purity greater than 90%.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Expression

CHMP2B is a cytosolic protein that can polymerize to form tubules, which project the plasma membrane outward, facilitating membrane fission and budding . It is expressed in neurons across all major regions of the brain and is essential for the survival of nerve cells (neurons) .

Function and Mechanism

The ESCRT-III complex, which includes CHMP2B, is involved in the concentration and invagination of ubiquitinated endosomal cargos into intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) . These ILVs are then delivered to lysosomes for degradation . The ESCRT machinery also plays a role in other membrane fission events, such as the terminal stages of cytokinesis and the budding of enveloped viruses like HIV-1 .

Clinical Significance

Mutations in the CHMP2B gene have been linked to a form of familial frontotemporal lobar degeneration, a neurodegenerative disorder . This highlights the importance of CHMP2B in maintaining neuronal health and function.

Recombinant CHMP2B

Recombinant CHMP2B proteins are typically expressed in systems like Escherichia coli or HEK293T cells . These recombinant proteins are used in various research applications, including SDS-PAGE, mass spectrometry, and cell culture studies . They are often tagged with His or DDK tags to facilitate purification and detection .
