Description
RGS17 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 230 amino acids (1-210) and having a molecular mass of 26.5 kDa. The RGS17 is fused to a 20 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms
Regulator of G-protein signaling 17, RGS-17, RGSZ2, hRGS17.
Introduction
RGS17 weakens the signaling activity of G-proteins by binding to activated GTP-bound G alpha subunits and performing as a GTPase activating protein (GAP), increasing the rate of conversion of the GTP to GDP. This hydrolysis allows the G alpha subunits to bind G beta/gamma subunit heterodimers, creating inactive G-protein heterotrimers, which terminates the signal. RGS17 has a vital part in ending the signaling by mu opioid receptors and development of tolerance to opioid analgesic drugs.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
The RGS17 solution (1mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 0.1M NaCl,1mM DTT and 10% glycerol.
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 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
