Protein Disulfide Isomerase Human Recombinant

Protein disulfide isomerases (PDIs) constitute a family of structurally related enzymes which catalyze disulfide bonds formation, reduction, or isomerization of newly synthesized proteins in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). They act also as chaperones, and are, therefore, part of a quality-control system for the correct folding of the proteins in the same subcellular compartment. PDI has been found to have moderate effects (25-fold) on the rate of oxidative folding of proteins in vitro.
Recombinant Human Protein Disulfide Isomerase is involved in disulphide-bond formation and isomerization, as well as the reduction of disulphide bonds in proteins. Recombinant PDI has been found to have moderate effects (25-fold) on the rate of oxidative folding of proteins in vitro.
Description PDI Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 503 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 62.4 kDa. The PDI is fused to a 12 amino acid His tag (515 a.a. total) at N-terminal and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms Protein Disulfide Isomerase, PDI, EC 5.3.4.1, Prolyl 4-hydroxylase subunit beta, Cellular thyroid hormone-binding protein, p55, P4HB, ERBA2L, PDIA1, PO4DB, DSI, GIT, PHDB, PO4HB, PROHB, P4Hbeta.
Source Escherichia Coli.
Amino Acid Sequence The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Met-Leu-Arg-Arg-Ala.
Purity >96% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Formulation Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
The PDI protein (1mg/ml)solution was lyophilized from PBS pH-7.
Stability The lyophilized form of the protein is stable at room temperature for 3 weeks and at -20°C for at least 2 years from the date of receipt. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C for no more than 7 days. The protein is stable at -20°C for six months. For long term storage, please store at -80°C and the addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended. Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Biological Activity 0.5 µmol active RNase A min-1 µmol PDI-1. According to the re-activation of reduced and denatured RNase A (Lyles, M. M. and Gilbert, H. F. (1991) Biochemistry 30, 613-619).
Solubility It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized PDI in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Usage LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. Not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
