Product Specs

Introduction

Serine/arginine-rich splicing factor 1 (SFRS1), a member of the arginine/serine-rich splicing factor protein family, plays a crucial role in both constitutive and alternative pre-mRNA splicing. This protein binds to pre-mRNA transcripts and components of the spliceosome, influencing splicing by either initiating or inhibiting it based on the location of its binding site on the pre-mRNA. The splicing activation function of SFRS1 is regulated through phosphorylation and interactions with other proteins associated with splicing factors.

Description

Recombinant human SRSF1, expressed in Sf9 insect cells using a baculovirus system, is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain. It comprises 254 amino acids (residues 1-248) and has a molecular weight of 28.5 kDa. A 6-amino acid His-tag is fused to the C-terminus of SRSF1 to facilitate purification, which is achieved using proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Physical Appearance
A sterile, filtered solution that is colorless.
Formulation

The SRSF1 protein solution is provided at a concentration of 0.25 mg/ml and is formulated in a buffer consisting of 20 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 100 mM KCl, 1 mM DTT, 0.2 mM EDTA, and 40% 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 ensure optimal stability during long-term storage, adding a carrier protein such as HSA or BSA (0.1%) is advised. Repeated freezing and thawing of the product should be avoided.
Purity

The purity of the SRSF1 protein is determined to be greater than 95.0% as assessed by SDS-PAGE analysis.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Function

SRSF1 is a member of the serine/arginine-rich splicing factor (SRSF) family, characterized by the presence of serine/arginine-rich (RS) domains. These domains are essential for the protein’s function in splicing regulation. The protein is approximately 33 kDa in size and plays a vital role in both constitutive and alternative splicing of pre-mRNA .

Mechanism of Action

SRSF1 influences splice site selection in a concentration-dependent manner, which means that its levels can determine the outcome of splicing events. It is involved in the recognition of splice sites and the assembly of the spliceosome, a complex responsible for the removal of introns from pre-mRNA . Additionally, SRSF1 mediates post-splicing activities such as mRNA nuclear export and translation .

Biological Significance

SRSF1 is essential for all splicing reactions to occur and is involved in various biological processes, including:

  • mRNA splicing via the spliceosome
  • Termination of RNA polymerase II transcription
  • mRNA transport
  • Cardiac muscle contraction
  • mRNA processing and export from the nucleus
  • Liver regeneration
  • Alternative mRNA splicing
Clinical Relevance

High expression of SRSF1 has been observed to significantly influence cancer progression, particularly in osteosarcoma (OS). Studies have shown that SRSF1 expression is consistently upregulated in OS samples and cell lines. Overexpression of SRSF1 leads to enhanced cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, while its knockdown results in reduced growth and increased apoptosis . These findings suggest that SRSF1 could be a potential therapeutic target in cancer treatment.

Recombinant SRSF1 (Human, Sf9)

Recombinant SRSF1 (Human, Sf9) refers to the human SRSF1 protein produced using the Sf9 insect cell expression system. This system is commonly used for the production of recombinant proteins due to its ability to perform post-translational modifications similar to those in mammalian cells. The recombinant protein is used in various research applications to study the function and regulation of SRSF1 in splicing and other cellular processes.
