MAX Protein, Human, Recombinant (His & GST)

MYC associated factor X contains 1 basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) domain and belongs to the MAX family. It is highly expressed in the brain, heart, and lung while lower levels are seen in the liver, kidney, and skeletal muscle. MYC associated factor X can form homodimers and heterodimers with other family members, which include Mad, Mxi1, and Myc. Myc is an oncoprotein implicated in cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis. The homodimers and heterodimers compete for a common DNA target site (the E box) and rearrangement among these dimer forms provides a complex system of transcriptional regulation. MYC associated factor X may also repress transcription via the recruitment of a chromatin remodeling complex containing H3 'Lys-9' histone methyltransferase activity. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described for MYC associated factor X gene but the full-length nature for some of them is unknown.

Formulation	Lyophilized from sterile 20mM Tris, 500mM NaCl, pH 8.0, 10% glyPlease contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0. 01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA.
Reconstitution	A hardcopy of datasheet with reconstitution instructions is sent along with the products. Please refer to it for detailed information.
Stability & Storage	Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Shipping	In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature.Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise.
