Product Specs

Introduction
TCP1, a member of the chaperonin containing TCP1 complex (CCT), also called the TCP1 ring complex (TRiC), functions as a molecular chaperone. This complex comprises two identical stacked rings, each containing eight distinct proteins. Unfolded polypeptides enter the complex's central cavity, where they undergo ATP-dependent folding. Found in the cytosol, TCP1 exists as a subunit of a hetero-oligomeric chaperone. It plays a crucial role in cellular homeostasis by assisting the folding of numerous proteins, including cytoskeletal components like actin and tubulin.

This single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain consists of 576 amino acids (1-556 a.a.) and has a molecular weight of 62.5 kDa. Purification of TCP1 is achieved using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
Sterile, colorless solution.
Formulation
The TCP1 solution (0.5 mg/ml) is supplied in 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0) containing 1mM DTT, 0.1mM PMSF, and 10% glycerol.
Stability
For optimal storage, keep the vial at 4°C if using within 2-4 weeks. For extended periods, store frozen at -20°C. Adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended for long-term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Purity exceeds 80.0%, as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
