Product Specs

Introduction
SNTN, a member of the S-100 family, is exclusively found in the bridging structure connecting the cell membrane and peripheral singlet microtubules. This structure is uniquely present in the narrowed distal part of cilia. Studies have shown that sentan, when expressed externally, exhibits an affinity for membrane protrusions. Furthermore, a protein-lipid binding assay revealed that sentan binds to phosphatidylserine. These findings suggest that sentan is the primary molecular component at the ciliary tip responsible for linking the cell membrane and peripheral singlet microtubules. This connection contributes to the narrow and rigid nature of the distal cilia region, facilitating optimal airway clearance or ovum transport.

Product Science Overview

Gene and Protein Information

The SNTN gene is located on chromosome 3 and is responsible for coding the Sentan protein . The protein is predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity and calcium-dependent protein binding activity . It is primarily located in the cilium, where it may act as a component of the linker structure that bridges the ciliary membrane and peripheral singlet microtubules .

Function and Importance

Sentan Cilia Apical Structure Protein is believed to be involved in maintaining the structural integrity of cilia. Cilia are critical for various physiological functions, including:

  • Motility: Cilia help in the movement of cells or the fluid surrounding them.
  • Sensory Functions: Cilia are involved in sensing environmental signals and transmitting them to the cell.
  • Signaling Pathways: Cilia play a role in various signaling pathways that regulate cell growth, differentiation, and development.

Defects in ciliary structure or function can lead to a group of disorders known as ciliopathies, which can affect multiple organ systems.

Recombinant Protein

Recombinant Sentan Cilia Apical Structure Protein is produced using recombinant DNA technology. This involves inserting the SNTN gene into a suitable expression system, such as bacteria or mammalian cells, to produce the protein in large quantities. The recombinant protein is then purified for use in research and therapeutic applications.

The recombinant human Sentan Cilia Apical Structure Protein is typically provided in a solution containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 1mM DTT, 50% glycerol, and 0.15M NaCl . This formulation helps maintain the stability and activity of the protein.

Research and Applications

Research on Sentan Cilia Apical Structure Protein is ongoing to better understand its role in ciliary function and its potential implications in ciliopathies. The recombinant protein is used in various experimental setups to study its biochemical properties, interactions with other proteins, and its role in cellular processes.
