Introduction
Heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein A1 (HNRNPA1), a member of the ubiquitously expressed hnRNP A/B subfamily, plays a crucial role in RNA metabolism. It participates in pre-mRNA packaging, nuclear export of mature mRNA, and potentially splice site regulation. HNRNPA1 is implicated in HCV RNA replication and may be essential for myometrial protein changes during labor. This protein exhibits unique RNA-binding properties due to its two quasi-RRM domains. As a major hnRNP complex component, HNRNPA1 is primarily located in the nucleoplasm. It shuttles between the nucleus and cytoplasm, likely bound to mRNA, facilitated by its M9 domain, which acts as both a nuclear localization and export signal.
Description
Recombinant human HNRNPA1, expressed in E. coli, is a non-glycosylated polypeptide chain comprising 343 amino acids (1-320 a.a.) with a 36.6 kDa molecular weight. A 23-amino acid His-tag is fused to the N-terminus. Purification is achieved using proprietary chromatographic methods.
Physical Appearance
A clear solution that has been sterilized by filtration.
Formulation
This solution contains 0.5 mg/ml of HNRNPA1 protein in a buffer consisting of 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 40% glycerol, 0.15 M NaCl, and 1 mM DTT.
Stability
For short-term storage (up to 4 weeks), the solution should be kept at 4°C. For longer storage, it's recommended to freeze the solution at -20°C. To ensure stability during long-term storage, consider adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Repeated freezing and thawing should be avoided.
Purity
The purity of this product exceeds 85.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
Synonyms
