Introduction
HSPB3, primarily found in heart and skeletal muscle, is a small heat shock protein specific to muscle tissue. Belonging to a family of highly expressed proteins, mammalian small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) play diverse roles. These roles include the assembly and sequestration of multi-protein complexes, facilitating the transport of newly synthesized polypeptide chains across cell membranes, and modulating protein folding processes. HSPB3 functions as an ATP-dependent chaperone protein, actively participating in the refolding of misfolded proteins and regulating actin polymerization.
Description
Recombinantly produced in E. coli, HSPB3 Human Recombinant is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain consisting of 170 amino acids (residues 1-150) and possessing a molecular weight of 19.1 kDa. For purification purposes, a 20 amino acid His-Tag is fused to the N-terminus of HSPB3, and proprietary chromatographic techniques are employed.
Physical Appearance
A clear, colorless solution that has been sterilized by filtration.
Formulation
The HSPB3 solution is provided at a concentration of 1mg/ml and is formulated in a buffer containing 20mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 1M Urea, and 5% glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), the entire vial can be stored at 4°C. For extended storage, it is recommended to freeze the solution at -20°C. Adding a carrier protein such as 0.1% HSA or BSA is advisable for long-term storage. Repeated freezing and thawing cycles should be avoided.
Purity
SDS-PAGE analysis indicates a purity exceeding 85%.
Synonyms
Heat shock 27kDa protein 3, HSPL27, Protein 3, HSP 17, DHMN2C, HMN2C, heat shock protein beta-3, HspB3.
