Introduction
Vacuolar protein sorting-associated protein 26A (VPS26A) is a vital element of the retromer complex, which is required to recover lysosomal enzyme receptors (IGF2R and M6PR) from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network. Furthermore, VPS26A is essential in the regulation of transcytosis of the polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR-pIgA). Expression analysis in yeast and mammalian cells reveal that VPS26A interacts directly with VPS35 that functions as the core of the retromer complex.
Description
VPS26A Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 350 amino acids (1-327 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 40.6kDa.
VPS26A is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
E.coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
VPS26A protein solution (0.5mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.0), 10% glycerol and 0.15M NaCl.
