Introduction
SERTAD1, or SERTA domain-containing protein, plays a crucial role in transcriptional regulation. It interacts with E2F-responsive promoters, enhancing their activity when bound to E2F-1/DP-1 transcription factors. This protein also influences cell cycle progression by reducing the activity of cyclin D1/CDK4 complexes that are resistant to the inhibitory effects of p16(INK4a). Its functionality is further diversified through interactions with various PHD- and bromodomain-containing proteins, including TIF1, TRIM28/TIF1B, and p300/CBP. Additionally, SERTAD1 exhibits binding affinity for DP1 and interacts with CDK4, highlighting its multifaceted role in cellular processes.
Description
This product consists of the recombinant human SERTAD1 protein, expressed in E. coli and purified to a high degree. The protein is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain comprising 260 amino acids (with residues 1-236 representing the SERTAD1 sequence). A 24 amino acid His-tag is present at the N-terminus to facilitate purification. The molecular weight of the protein is 27.3 kDa, although it may appear larger on SDS-PAGE due to the His-tag. Purification is achieved using proprietary chromatographic techniques, resulting in a highly pure protein product.
Physical Appearance
The product is a clear, colorless solution that has been sterilized by filtration.
Formulation
The SERTAD1 protein is supplied in a solution at a concentration of 0.5 mg/ml. The solution also contains 20 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 10% glycerol, and 1 mM DTT.
Stability
For short-term storage (up to 4 weeks), the product can be stored at 4°C. For longer-term storage, it is recommended to freeze the product at -20°C. To ensure stability during long-term storage, consider adding a carrier protein like HSA or BSA (0.1%). It's important to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles to maintain the protein's integrity.
Purity
The purity of the SERTAD1 protein is greater than 85%, as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
Synonyms
SERTA domain-containing protein 1, CDK4-binding protein p34SEI1, SEI-1, Transcriptional regulator interacting with the PHD-bromodomain 1, TRIP-Br1, SERTAD1, SEI1.
