Background:
The retinoid X receptor(RXR) is a pleiotropic nuclear receptor transcription factor that interacts with a variety of nuclear receptor dimeric partner. RXR binds cognate response elements as a homodimer in the presence of its ligand, 9-cis retinoic acid, or as a heterodimer with other members of the nuclear hormone receptor superfamily including retinoic acid receptors(RAR), thyroid hormone receptors(TR), vitamin D receptors and peroxisome proliferators-activated receptors(PPAR). The RXR family includes three difference isoforms ; RXR alpha, beta, gamma. Human RXR a gene is localized on 9q34.9 and encodes two major isoforms(RXR a1, RXR a2).
Description:
Recombinant Human RXR-a produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 119 amino acids & having a molecular mass of 13.6 kDa.
The DNA binding domain of RXR(111-228aa) was purified by using conventional column chromatography techniques.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile filtered clorless solution.
Formulation:
The protein (1mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl pH7.5, 0.1M NaCl, 5mM beta-Mercaptoethanol.
Stability:
Store at 4蚓 if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks.
Store, frozen at -20蚓 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 95.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE Coomassie.
