CgA is a precursor to numerous bioactive peptides and plays a crucial role in the regulation of neuroendocrine functions. It acts as a negative regulator of the neuroendocrine activity of autocrine or nearby cells (paracrine) . The protein is involved in the formation of secretory granules that contain insulin in pancreatic islet beta cells .
The recombinant form of CgA is produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells. This recombinant protein is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain consisting of 448 amino acids, including a 6 amino acid His Tag at the C-terminus . The molecular mass of this recombinant protein is approximately 50 kDa, and it shows multiple bands between 50-70 kDa on SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions .
The recombinant CgA protein solution is formulated in Phosphate Buffered Saline (pH 7.4) with 20% glycerol and 0.1mM PMSF . For short-term storage, it should be kept at 4°C if used within 2-4 weeks. For long-term storage, it is recommended to freeze the protein at -20°C with a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) to avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles .
