Master transcriptional regulator that mediates the response to amino acid starvation. Binds variations of the DNA sequence 5'-ATGA[CG]TCAT-3' in canonical nucleosome-depleted 5'-positioned promoters, and also within coding sequences and 3' non-coding regions. During nutrient starvation (low or poor amino acid, carbon or purine sources), it activates genes required for amino acid biosynthesis and transport, autophagy, cofactor biosynthesis and transport, mitochondrial transport, and additional downstream transcription factors. Activates transcription by recruiting multiple coactivators, including the mediator complex, the SAGA complex, and the SWI/SNF complex, to enable assembly of the pre-initiation complex at core promoters.

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.

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.

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.
