Product Specs

Introduction
The protein encoded by UTP23 is a component of the small subunit (SSU) processome, which is crucial for ribosome biogenesis. The SSU processome is responsible for the maturation of pre-18S rRNA. Within this complex, UTP23 plays a vital role in the initial three cleavage steps of 18S rRNA maturation. Notably, while single-point mutations in the conserved putative active site of Utp24 completely abolish its function in ribosome biogenesis, similar mutations in Utp23 do not have the same effect.
Description
Recombinant human UTP23, expressed in E. coli, is a single polypeptide chain with a molecular weight of 30.8 kDa. This protein comprises 272 amino acids, including a 23 amino acid His-tag fused to the N-terminus (amino acids 1-249). Purification is achieved using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
A clear, colorless solution that has been sterilized by filtration.
Formulation
The UTP23 solution is formulated in 20mM Tris-HCl buffer with a pH of 8.0, 0.2M NaCl, 1mM DTT, and 20% glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), the UTP23 solution should be stored at 4°C. For longer storage, it is recommended to freeze the solution at -20°C. The addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is advised for long-term storage. To maintain protein integrity, avoid repeated cycles of freezing and thawing.
Purity
Purity of UTP23 is greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
