Product Specs

Introduction
SRGN, a hematopoietic cell granule proteoglycan, plays a crucial role in the function of secretory granules found in various hematopoietic cells. This proteoglycan features a protease-resistant peptide core, which is essential for neutralizing harmful hydrolytic enzymes. Notably, SRGN is associated with the macromolecular complex of granzymes and perforin, acting as a key mediator in granule-mediated apoptosis.

Note that the molecular weight on SDS-PAGE might appear higher. This protein is fused to a 25 amino acid His-tag at the N-terminus and purified using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
Clear, colorless solution that has been sterilized by filtration.
Formulation
The SRGN solution is provided at a concentration of 1mg/ml and is formulated in a buffer containing 20mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 2mM DTT, 0.15M NaCl, and 10% glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), the solution can be stored at 4°C. For extended storage, it is recommended to freeze the solution at -20°C. Adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is advisable for long-term storage. Repeated freezing and thawing of the solution should be avoided.
Purity
The purity of the SRGN protein is greater than 90%, as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.

Product Science Overview

Definition and Classification

Serglycin is a proteoglycan composed of a relatively small core protein (approximately 17 kDa) to which sulfated glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) such as heparin, heparan sulfate, or chondroitin sulfate are attached . It is primarily known as a hematopoietic cell granule proteoglycan .

Biological Properties

Serglycin is characterized by its protease-resistant peptide core, which is crucial for neutralizing hydrolytic enzymes . It is associated with the macromolecular complex of granzymes and perforin, playing a role in granule-mediated apoptosis .

Expression Patterns and Tissue Distribution

Serglycin is expressed in various cell types, particularly those of hematopoietic origin . It is stored in the secretory granules of different hematopoietic cells, including mast cells, T-lymphocytes, and neutrophils .

Biological Functions

Serglycin has several key functions:

  • Storage of Proteases: It is essential for the storage of proteases in connective tissue and mucosal mast cells, as well as granzyme B in T-lymphocytes .
  • Granule Homeostasis: It maintains the homeostasis of secretory granules in mast cells, affecting their morphology and staining properties .
  • Localization of Enzymes: Serglycin localizes neutrophil elastase in the azurophil granules of neutrophils .
Roles in Immune Responses and Pathogen Recognition

Serglycin plays a significant role in immune responses by mediating granule-mediated apoptosis and storing various proteases and enzymes that are crucial for immune functions .

Modes of Action and Mechanisms with Other Molecules and Cells

Serglycin interacts with granzymes and perforin to mediate apoptosis. It also interacts with various proteases and enzymes to facilitate their storage and function within granules .

Binding Partners and Downstream Signaling Cascades

Serglycin binds to sulfated GAGs and forms complexes with granzymes and perforin. These interactions are vital for its role in apoptosis and enzyme storage .

Regulatory Mechanisms

The expression and function of serglycin are regulated by various factors, including local growth factors such as stem cell factor (SCF) that influence mast cell development and function .

Serglycin’s multifaceted roles in immune responses, enzyme storage, and granule homeostasis make it a critical component in various physiological processes.
