Research AreasCancer

Function

May contribute to the transparency and refractive index of the lens. Has chaperone-like activity, preventing aggregation of various proteins under a wide range of stress conditions. In lens epithelial cells, stabilizes the ATP6V1A protein, preventing its degradation by the proteasome.

Biological Context

Subcellular Location: Cytoplasm; Nucleus; Secreted; Lysosome
Tissue Specificity: Lens as well as other tissues

Product Specifications

Recombinant Bovine Alpha-crystallin B chain (CRYAB) is a recombinant protein from Bos taurus (Bovine), expressed in E.coli, covering amino acids 1-175aa, with N-terminal 10xHis-tagged and C-terminal Myc-tagged tag, molecular weight 27.5kDa, purity Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.. 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.

Shelf Life: 12 months from date of receipt when stored as recommended.

Shipping Time: Orders placed before 2 PM EST ship same day. International orders typically deliver within 5-10 business days.

Subunit

Heteromer composed of three CRYAA and one CRYAB subunits. Aggregates with homologous proteins, including the small heat shock protein HSPB1, to form large heteromeric complexes. Inter-subunit bridging via zinc ions enhances stability, which is crucial as there is no protein turn over in the lens. Interacts with HSPBAP1 and TTN/titin. Interacts with TMEM109; in the cellular response to DNA damage. Interacts with DES; binds rapidly during early stages of DES filament assembly and a reduced binding seen in the later stages. Interacts with TMED10; the interaction mediates the translocation from the cytoplasm into the ERGIC (endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment) and thereby secretion. Interacts with ATP6V1A and with MTOR, forming a ternary complex (By similarity)
