Description:

Recombinant human LALBA protein with C-terminal human Fc tag

Background:

This gene encodes alpha-lactalbumin, a principal protein of milk. Alpha-lactalbumin forms the regulatory subunit of the lactose synthase (LS) heterodimer and beta 1,4-galactosyltransferase (beta4Gal-T1) forms the catalytic component. Together, these proteins enable LS to produce lactose by transfering galactose moieties to glucose. As a monomer, alpha-lactalbumin strongly binds calcium and zinc ions and may possess bactericidal or antitumor activity. A folding variant of alpha-lactalbumin, called HAMLET, likely induces apoptosis in tumor and immature cells. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Molecular characterization:

LALBA (Lys20-Leu142) hFc(Glu99-ALA330)

Molecular weight:

The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 39.05 kDa after removal of the signal peptide.

Tag:

C-Human Fc Tag

Expression host:

HEK293

Target:

LALBA

Purity:

The purity of the protein is greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining.

Formulation / Reconstitution:

Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8% trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization. Please see Certificate of Analysis for specific instructions of reconstitution.

Storage:

Store at -20°C to -80°C for 12 months in lyophilized form. After reconstitution, if not intended for use within a month, aliquot and store at -80°C (Avoid repeated freezing and thawing). Lyophilized proteins are shipped at ambient temperature.
