Introduction
SNRPE plays a crucial role in the assembly of UsnRNPs (U small nuclear ribonucleoproteins) within the cytoplasm. It achieves this by binding to a conserved Sm site on UsnRNA, leading to the formation of a stable snRNP core complex. As a core protein of UsnRNP, SNRPE interacts with all members of the U family of snRNAs, including U1 through U6. Additionally, SNRPE interacts with other proteins such as DDX20 and Small nuclear ribonucleoprotein polypeptide F.
Description
This product consists of the human recombinant SNRPE protein, fused with a 20 amino acid His tag at its N-terminus. It is produced in E.Coli and is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain. The protein comprises 112 amino acids (specifically, amino acids 1 to 92 of the SNRPE sequence) and has a molecular weight of 12.9kDa. Purification of SNRPE is achieved using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
The product is a sterile, colorless solution.
Formulation
The SNRPE solution is provided at a concentration of 0.25 mg/ml. It is formulated in a buffer consisting of 20mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 0.2M NaCl, 5mM DTT, 1mM EDTA, and 30% glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (up to 2-4 weeks), the product can be stored at 4°C. For longer storage, it is recommended to freeze the product at -20°C. To further enhance long-term stability, consider adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). It is important to avoid repeated freezing and thawing of the product.
Purity
The purity of the SNRPE protein is greater than 95%, as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
