Product Specs

Introduction
UCN119B, a member of the PDE6D/unc-119 family, is found in high concentrations in the photoreceptors of the retina. This protein shares significant similarities with the C. elegans unc119 gene and can compensate for its absence in mutated C. elegans organisms.
Description
Recombinant human UNC119B, produced in E. coli, is a non-glycosylated polypeptide chain consisting of 271 amino acids (1-251) with a molecular weight of 30.3 kDa. This protein is expressed with an N-terminal 20 amino acid His-tag and purified using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
Clear, colorless, and sterile filtered solution.
Formulation
The UNC119B solution is provided at a concentration of 0.5 mg/ml in a buffer consisting of 20mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 100mM NaCl, 1mM DTT, and 10% glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (up to 4 weeks), keep at 4°C. For extended periods, store frozen at -20°C. Adding a carrier protein such as 0.1% HSA or BSA is recommended for long-term storage. Repeated freezing and thawing should be avoided.

Product Science Overview

Gene and Protein Structure

The UNC119B gene encodes a protein that is composed of 251 amino acids. The recombinant human UNC119B protein is often expressed in Escherichia coli and purified using conventional chromatography techniques . The protein is typically tagged with a His-tag at the N-terminus to facilitate purification and detection .

Functional Role

UNC119B plays a crucial role in the retina, where it is involved in the function of photoreceptor cells. It can functionally complement the C. elegans unc119 mutation gene, indicating its evolutionary conservation and importance . The protein is associated with the mammalian multisubunit photoreceptor cGMP phosphodiesterase PDE alpha beta gamma 2 (PDE6 family), which is a peripherally membrane-associated enzyme .

Applications

Recombinant human UNC119B protein is used in various research applications, including SDS-PAGE and mass spectrometry (MS). It is important to note that this protein is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis .

Storage and Handling

The recombinant human UNC119B protein should be stored at 4°C for short-term use and at -20°C for long-term storage. It is recommended to avoid freeze-thaw cycles to maintain the protein’s stability and functionality .
