Recombinant Monkeypox virus A26L protein (His, SUMO tag)

Monkeypox Virus (MPXV), the virus that causes monkeypox infection in both humans and animals, is a double-stranded DNA virus that has had a recent global outbreak in 2022 . MPXV belongs to the Poxviridae family of viruses . It consists of several key subunits including a surface membrane fusion protein (A29L, ~14 kDa), two separate envelope proteins (A30L ~14 kDa and H3L ~32kDa), an envelope glycoprotein, A35R ~15 kDa), a receptor glycoprotein that mimics IFN-alpha/beta (B16, ~37 kDa), a palmitoylated EEV membrane glycoprotein (C19L, ~35 kDa), a secreted IL-18 binding protein (D6L, ~14 kDa), a cell surface-binding protein (E8L, ~32 kDa), a telomere binding protein (I1L, ~36kDa), and a subunit required for DNA packaging (L1R, 18 kDa) .

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.
