Form:

Liquid or Lyophilized powder

Buffer:

If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

Research Areas:

Epigenetics and Nuclear Signaling

Function:

Transcription factor specifically required to repress SINE-VNTR-Alu (SVA) retrotransposons

Involvement in disease:

Relevance:

Binds glycerophospholipids in a barrel-like domain and may play a role in cellular lipid transport . Binds calcium (via the C2 domains) and translocates to sites of contact between the endoplasmic reticulum and the cell mbrane in response to increased cytosolic calcium levels. Helps tether the endoplasmic reticulum to the cell mbrane and promotes the formation of appositions between the endoplasmic reticulum and the cell mbrane.

Reconstitution:

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20℃/-80℃. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.
