Product Specs

Introduction
FAM50A, a member of the FAM50 family, exhibits high conservation in length and sequence across various species. As a basic protein, it contains a nuclear localization signal and possesses potential functionality as a DNA-binding protein or a transcriptional factor. FAM50A is ubiquitously expressed, with notable abundance in fetal brain, liver, and kidney. In adults, elevated levels are observed in skeletal muscle, spleen, thymus, prostate, and the small intestine.
Description
Recombinant FAM50A, produced in E. coli, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain comprising 213 amino acids (residues 150-339). With a molecular weight of 25.2 kDa, it features a 23 amino acid His-tag fused at the N-terminus. Purification is achieved using proprietary chromatographic methods.
Physical Appearance
The product is a sterile, colorless solution.
Formulation
The FAM50A protein solution (0.5 mg/ml) is supplied in a buffer containing 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 0.15 M NaCl, 20% glycerol, and 1 mM DTT.
Stability
For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), the product should be kept at 4°C. For extended storage, freezing at -20°C is recommended. Adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is advisable for long-term storage. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles should be avoided.
Purity
The purity of the product is greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.

Function and Characteristics

The FAM50A gene encodes a basic protein that contains a nuclear localization signal, suggesting its role in the nucleus. It is believed to function as a DNA-binding protein or a transcriptional factor . The protein is probably involved in the regulation of pre-mRNA splicing, which is a crucial step in the processing of mRNA before it is translated into proteins .

Associated Diseases

Mutations or dysregulation of the FAM50A gene have been associated with several disorders, including:

  • Intellectual Developmental Disorder, X-Linked, Syndromic, Armfield Type: A condition characterized by intellectual disability and other developmental issues.
  • Armfield Syndrome: Another disorder linked to mutations in the FAM50A gene .
Research and Applications

Recombinant FAM50A protein is used in various research applications, including studies on gene expression, protein-protein interactions, and the role of FAM50A in disease mechanisms. It is available from several biotech companies for research purposes .
