Product Specifications

Recombinant Escherichia coli Periplasmic murein peptide-binding protein (mppA) — Part of the ABC transporter complex MppA-OppBCDF involved in the uptake of the cell wall murein tripeptide L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelate. Purity >90%. Suitable for ELISA and Western Blot applications.

SDS-PAGE: Single band at expected molecular weight confirming purity.

ELISA: Suitable as coating antigen or detection standard.

Western Blot: Compatible with standard Western Blot protocols.

Protein Interaction: Validated for SPR (Surface Plasmon Resonance) and BLI (Bio-Layer Interferometry) studies.

Shipping: Shipped at ambient temperature. Lyophilized protein is stable during transit.

Storage: Store lyophilized protein at -20°C to -80°C. Reconstituted protein should be aliquoted and stored at -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Protein Biology

Function

Part of the ABC transporter complex MppA-OppBCDF involved in the uptake of the cell wall murein tripeptide L-alanyl-gamma-D-glutamyl-meso-diaminopimelate (PubMed:9495761). Is involved in the recycling of cell wall peptides (PubMed:9495761). Binds the cell wall peptide L-Ala-D-Gly-gamma-meso-diaminopimelic acid (PubMed:21705338, PubMed:9495761). Can also transport ordinary alpha-linked tripeptides such as Pro-Phe-Lys, but with much lower efficiency than OppA (PubMed:9495761). Cannot bind typical tripeptides such as Lys-Glu-Lys, Lys-Lys-Lys or Ala-Ala-Ala (PubMed:21705338)

Subcellular Location

Periplasm

Subunit

The complex is composed of two ATP-binding proteins (OppD and OppF), two transmembrane proteins (OppB and OppC) and a solute-binding protein (MppA)

Gene: mppA  |  Organism: Escherichia coli (strain K12)  |  Synonyms: Murein peptide permease A

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I order or inquire about this product?

Fill out the Online Inquiry form with your required quantity and specifications. You can also email sales@biocrestsci.com. Our team typically responds within 4 business hours with a quote and availability confirmation.

What is the shipping and delivery time?

Orders placed before 2 PM EST ship the same day. Domestic (US) delivery typically takes 2-3 business days. International orders deliver within 5-10 business days. All products are shipped at ambient temperature with appropriate packaging to ensure stability.

How should I store this recombinant protein?

Lyophilized proteins should be stored at -20°C to -80°C upon receipt. After reconstitution, aliquot and store at -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Shelf life is 12 months from date of receipt when stored as recommended.

What quality controls are performed on your products?

Each product undergoes SDS-PAGE purity analysis (typically >85-95%), endotoxin testing, and bioactivity validation. Products are validated for ELISA, Western Blot, and SPR/BLI applications as specified on this product page. A Certificate of Analysis (CoA) is available upon request.
