Introduction
HSD17B10, a component of mitochondrial ribonuclease P, plays a crucial role in the maturation of mitochondrial tRNA. This enzyme, composed of MRPP1/RG9MTD1, MRPP2/HSD17B10, and MRPP3/KIAA0391, is responsible for cleaving tRNA molecules at their 5' ends. Notably, HSD17B10 interacts with intracellular amyloid-beta, contributing to the neuronal dysfunction observed in Alzheimer's disease.
Description
Recombinant HSD17B10, expressed in E. coli, is a non-glycosylated polypeptide chain consisting of 271 amino acids (residues 12-261). With a molecular weight of 28.1 kDa, this protein is produced with a 21-amino acid His-Tag fused at the N-terminus to facilitate purification via standard chromatography techniques.
Physical Appearance
The product is a sterile, colorless solution that has been filtered for purity.
Formulation
The HSD17B10 protein is provided at a concentration of 1 mg/ml in a buffer solution containing 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 0.1 M NaCl, 1 mM DTT, and 10% glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (up to 2-4 weeks), the product can be stored at 4°C. For extended storage periods, it is recommended to freeze the product at -20°C. To further enhance stability during long-term storage, the addition of a carrier protein like HSA or BSA (0.1%) is advisable. Repeated freezing and thawing of the product should be avoided.
Purity
The purity of the HSD17B10 protein is greater than 95%, as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
