MPZ Protein, Human, Recombinant (His)

Catalog No. TMPJ-00913
Synonyms: Myelin Peripheral Protein, Myelin Protein P0, MPZ, Myelin Protein Zero, MPP

Myelin Protein P0 (MPZ) is a single-pass type I membrane glycoprotein which belongs to the myelin P0 protein family. MPZ contains one Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain, absent in the central nervous system. MPZ is a major component of the myelin sheath in peripheral nerves. It is postulated that MPZ is a structural element in the formation and stabilisation of peripheral nerve myelin, holding its characteristic coil structure together by the interaction of its positively-charged domain with acidic lipids in the cytoplasmic face of the opposed bilayer, and by interaction between hydrophobic globular of adjacent extracellular domains. Defects in MPZ associated with Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease and Dejerine-Sottas disease.

Synonyms Myelin Peripheral Protein, Myelin Protein P0, MPZ, Myelin Protein Zero, MPP
Amino Acid Ile30-Arg153
Construction Recombinant Human Myelin Protein P0 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Ile30-Arg153 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.
Protein Purity Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. (QC verified)
Molecular Weight 14-17 KDa, reducing conditions
Endotoxin Less than 0.1 ng/µg (1 EU/µg) as determined by LAL test.
Formulation Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Reconstitution Always centrifuge tubes before opening.Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100μg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. 
Stability & Storage

Lyophilized protein should be stored at ≤ -20°C, stable for one year after receipt. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 2-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at ≤ -20°C for 3 months.

Shipping

The product is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature listed below.
