Recombinant Human ERP27 Protein (Fc Tag)

ERP27 contains 1 thioredoxin domain and is a noncatalytic member of the protein disulfide isomerase family. Protein disulfide isomerases (PDIs) constitute a family of structurally related enzymes which catalyze disulfide bonds formation; reduction; or isomerization of newly synthesized proteins in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) . They act also as chaperones; and are; therefore; part of a quality-control system for the correct folding of the proteins in the same subcellular compartment. PDI has been found to have moderate effects (25-fold) on the rate of oxidative folding of proteins in vitro. Recombinant Human Protein Disulfide Isomerase is involved in disulphide-bond formation and isomerization; as well as the reduction of disulphide bonds in proteins. Recombinant PDI has been found to have moderate effects (25-fold) on the rate of oxidative folding of proteins in vitro. ERP27 is a widely expressed protein which localizes to the ER and may act as a protease; protein disulfide isomerase; thiol-disulfide oxidase or phospholipase. ERP27 doesn't contain a CXXC active site motif indicating that it is a catalytically redox-inactive member of the protein disulfide isomerase family.

Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.
