Recombinant human PICK1 protein
PICK1 contains a PDZ domain, through which it interacts with protein kinase C, alpha (PRKCA) . This protein may function as an adaptor that binds to and organizes the subcellular localization of a variety of membrane proteins. It has been shown to interact with multiple glutamate receptor subtypes, monoamine plasma membrane transporters, as well as non-voltage gated sodium channels, and may target PRKCA to these membrane proteins and thus regulate their distribution and function. PICK1 has also been found to act as an anchoring protein that specifically targets PRKCA to mitochondria in a ligand-specific manner. Recombinant human PICK1 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
