Product Specs

Introduction
HINT1, alternatively known as Histidine triad nucleotide-binding protein 1, belongs to a protein superfamily characterized by a near C-terminal HXHXHXX motif (H=Histidine, X=a hydrophobic amino acid). This motif interacts with the ?-phosphate of nucleotide substrates. HINT1 exhibits hydrolytic activity towards adenosine 5'-monophosphoramidate substrates, including AMP-morpholidate, AMP-N-alanine methyl ester, AMP-alpha-acetyl lysine methyl ester, and AMP-NH2. Initially, it was thought to inhibit protein kinase C and function as a haplod-insufficient tumor suppressor, with observations of spontaneous tumor development in Hint+/- and Hint-/- models. However, its precise physiological role remains to be fully elucidated.

Recombinant human HINT1, produced in E. coli, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain consisting of 126 amino acids (1-126 a.a.). It has a molecular weight of 13.8 kDa. The purification of HINT1 is achieved through proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
A sterile, colorless solution.
Formulation
The HINT1 solution is supplied in 20mM Tris buffer at pH 8.0 with 10% glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), the product can be stored at 4°C. For extended storage, it is recommended to freeze the product at -20°C. To ensure long-term stability during storage, adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is advised. It is crucial to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
The purity of HINT1 is determined to be greater than 90.0% by SDS-PAGE analysis.

Product Science Overview

Introduction

Histidine Triad Nucleotide Binding Protein 1 (HINT1) is a highly conserved protein that belongs to the histidine triad superfamily. This family is characterized by the presence of a histidine triad motif (His-X-His-X-His-X, where X is a hydrophobic amino acid) which is crucial for its function . HINT1 is involved in various biological processes and has been studied for its potential therapeutic applications.

Structure and Function

HINT1 is a small protein with a molecular mass of approximately 13.8 kDa . It hydrolyzes purine nucleotide phosphoramidates substrates, including AMP-morpholidate, AMP-N-alanine methyl ester, AMP-alpha-acetyl lysine methyl ester, and AMP-NH2 . The protein interacts with these substrates via its histidine triad motif, which is essential for its enzymatic activity .

Biological Roles

HINT1 has been implicated in several biological pathways and processes:

  • Tumor Suppression: HINT1 is considered a tumor suppressor gene. Loss of HINT1 function increases susceptibility to carcinogenesis in mice .
  • Neurological Functions: HINT1 plays important roles in diverse neuropsychiatric diseases, including schizophrenia, mood disorders, drug addiction, and inherited peripheral neuropathies .
  • Liver Fibrosis: Recombinant human HINT1 (rhHint1) has been shown to attenuate liver fibrosis induced by carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) in rats. This effect is achieved by inhibiting the TGF-β/Smad and Wnt/β-catenin signaling pathways .
Therapeutic Potential

The ability of rhHint1 to target multiple pathogenic pathways makes it a promising candidate for therapeutic applications. For instance, its role in attenuating liver fibrosis suggests potential for developing new treatments for chronic liver diseases .
