Recombinant Human PDCD4/H731 Protein (His Tag)

Programmed Cell Death Protein 4 (PDCD4) is a member of the PDCD4 family. PDCD4 and EIF4A1 form a heterotrimer. One molecule of PDCD4 binds two molecules of EIF4A1. PDCD4 takes part in apoptosis via inhibiting translation initiation and cap-dependent translation.PDCD4 promotes colonic neoplastic transformation and tumor invasion. PDCD4 is an important target for microrna R-21 in breast cancer cells. Shortage of PDCD4 expression is associated with colorectal cancer. Overexpression of PDCD4 in carcinoid cells results in inhibition of cell proliferation.

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.
