Nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NFE2L2), partial, human, recombinant

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human). Source: E.coli. Expression Region: 256-605aa. Protein Length: Partial. Tag Info: N-terminal 6xHis-tagged. Target Protein Sequence: SILSTEDPNQ LTVNSLNSDA TVNTDFGDEF YSAFIAEPSI SNSMPSPATL SHSLSELLNG PIDVSDLSLC KAFNQNHPES TAEFNDSDSG ISLNTSPSVA SPEHSVESSS YGDTLLGLSD SEVEELDSAP GSVKQNGPKT PVHSSGDMVQ PLSPSQGQST HVHDAQCENT PEKELPVSPG HRKTPFTKDK HSSRLEAHLT RDELRAKALH IPFPVEKIIN LPVVDFNEMM SKEQFNEAQL ALIRDIRRRG KNKVAAQNCR KRKLENIVEL EQDLDHLKDE KEKLLKEKGE NDKSLHLLKK QLSTLYLEVF SMLRDEDGKP YSPSEYSLQQ TRDGNVFLVP KSKKPDVKKN. Purity: Greater than 85% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Endotoxin: Not test. Biological Activity: n/a. 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. 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 °C/-80 °C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference. Storage: The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. Notes: Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4 °C for up to one week. Relevance: Transcription factor that plays a key role in the response to oxidative stress: binds to antioxidant response (ARE) elements present in the promoter region of many cytoprotective genes, such as phase 2 detoxifying enzymes, and promotes their expression, thereby neutralizing reactive electrophiles . In normal conditions, ubiquitinated and degraded in the cytoplasm by the BCR(KEAP1) complex . In response to oxidative stress, electrophile metabolites inhibit activity of the BCR(KEAP1) complex, promoting nuclear accumulation of NFE2L2/NRF2, heterodimerization with one of the small Maf proteins and binding to ARE elements of cytoprotective target genes . The NFE2L2/NRF2 pathway is also activated in response to selective autophagy: autophagy promotes interaction between KEAP1 and SQSTM1/p62 and subsequent inactivation of the BCR(KEAP1) complex, leading to NFE2L2/NRF2 nuclear accumulation and expression of cytoprotective genes . May also be involved in the transcriptional activation of genes of the beta-globin cluster by mediating enhancer activity of hypersensitive site 2 of the beta-globin locus control region .
