IMPACT Recombinant Protein

Source : Escherichia Coli. IMPACT Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 343 amino acids (1-320 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 38.9kDa.IMPACT is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Impact RWD Domain Protein (IMPACT) is a member of the IMPACT family which is comprised of 1 RWD domain. IMPACT is a translational regulator which certifies constant high levels of translation under amino acid starvation. IMPACT interacts with GCN1/GCN1L1, thus preventing activation of GCN2 protein kinases (EIF2AK1 to 4) and subsequent down-regulation of protein synthesis. IMPACT is highly expressed especially in brain.
