Introduction
The protein SET, primarily found in the endoplasmic reticulum, also exists in the nucleus. It plays a role in inhibiting apoptosis induced by cytotoxic T lymphocytes and can enhance DNA replication of the adenovirus genome. SET functions by inhibiting histone acetylation, particularly of histone H4, by masking histone lysines from histone acetylases (HAT).
Description
Recombinant SET protein, of human origin, is produced in E. coli. It consists of a single polypeptide chain of 290 amino acids (residues 1-290) with a molecular weight of 35.9kDa. A 23 amino acid His-tag is fused to the N-terminus to facilitate purification using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
A clear solution that has been sterilized by filtration.
Formulation
The SET protein solution is provided at a concentration of 0.5mg/ml in a buffer containing 20mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 0.15M NaCl, 20% glycerol, and 1mM DTT.
Stability
For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), the solution should be stored at 4°C. For long-term storage, it is recommended to store the solution at -20°C. The addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is advised for long-term storage. Repeated freezing and thawing of the solution should be avoided.
Purity
Purity is determined to be greater than 90% using SDS-PAGE analysis.
