Introduction
Mitogen-Activated
Protein Kinase 8, also known as MAPK8, is a part of the MAP kinase family. MAP
kinases an integration point for multiple biochemical signals which take part in
a various cellular processes. MAPK8 is a protein coding
gene which is also involved in UV radiation induced apoptosis that is associated
to cytochrom c-mediated cell death pathway.
Description
MAPK8 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 450 amino acids (1-427a.a) and having a molecular mass of 50.5kDa.
MAPK8 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
MAPK8 solution (0.5mg/ml) contains Phosphate Buffer Saline (pH7.4), 20% glycerol and 1mM DTT.
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 85% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
