Recombinant Human herpesvirus 2 Protein UL20 (UL20), partial

Plays an essential role in egress of virus particles from the nucleus, cytoplasmic envelopment and virus-induced cell fusion. Forms a functional protein complex with gK and this interaction is absolutely essential for their coordinate intracellular transport, gK glycosylation, expression on host cell surface, and function. Together, they modulate gB-mediated virus-induced cell fusion and virion egress and therefore actively participate in these processes.

If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.

The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.
