Recombinant Human CSN3/CASK Protein (His Tag)

Kappa-Casein (CSN3) is a secreted protein that belongs to the Kappa-Casein family. CSN3 exists in heteromultimers that are composed of alpha-s 1casein and kappa casein linked by disulfide bonds. CSN3 is involved in a number of important physiological processes. In the gut, CSN3 protein is split into an insoluble peptide (para kappa-casein) and a soluble hydrophilic glycopeptide (caseinomacropeptide) . Caseinomacropeptide is responsible for increased efficiency of digestion, prevention of neonate hypersensitivity to ingested proteins, and inhibition of gastric pathogens. Kappa-casein also stabilizes micelle formation, preventing casein precipitation in milk.

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.
