Recombinant Mouse Motch A/NOTCH1 Protein (His Tag)

Mouse Notch1 is a 300 kDa type I transmembrane glycoprotein and it functions as a receptor for membrane-bound ligands Jagged1, Jagged2 and Delta1 to regulate cell-fate determination. Mouse Notch1 is synthesized as a 2531 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains an 18 aa signal sequence, a 1707 aa extracellular domain (ECD) with 36 EGFlike repeats and three Lin12/notch repeats, a 21 aa transmembrane segment and a 785 aa cytoplasmic domain that contains six ankyrin repeats, a glutamine-rich domain and a PEST sequence. Notch1 may play an essential role in postimplantation development, probably in some aspect of cell specification and/or differentiation and may be involved in mesoderm development, somite formation and neurogenesis.

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.
