HSPA5 Protein, Human (sf9, His)

HSPA5/GRP-78 is an endoplasmic reticulum chaperone that coordinates protein folding and quality control. It cooperates with DNAJC10/ERdj5 to facilitate correct protein folding and participates in the degradation of misfolded proteins, potentially releasing DNAJC10/ERdj5. HSPA5 Protein, Human (sf9, His) is the recombinant human-derived HSPA5, expressed by Sf9 insect cells , with C-10*His labeled tag. ,

HSPA5/GRP-78, an endoplasmic reticulum chaperone, assumes a pivotal role in orchestrating protein folding and quality control within the endoplasmic reticulum lumen. Partnering with DNAJC10/ERdj5, it contributes to the proper folding of proteins and participates in the degradation of misfolded counterparts, potentially facilitating the release of DNAJC10/ERdj5 from its substrate. Functioning as a critical suppressor of the unfolded protein response (UPR) mediated by ERN1/IRE1, HSPA5/GRP-78 is recruited to the luminal region of ERN1/IRE1 by DNAJB9/ERdj4 under unstressed conditions, disrupting ERN1/IRE1 dimerization and thereby inactivating ERN1/IRE1. However, the accumulation of misfolded proteins prompts the release of HSPA5/BiP from ERN1/IRE1, allowing for homodimerization and subsequent activation of ERN1/IRE1. Additionally, HSPA5/GRP-78 serves as an auxiliary player in the post-translational transport of small presecretory proteins across the endoplasmic reticulum and is implicated in apoptosis, cell proliferation, and viral infection, acting as a cellular receptor for several flaviviruses, including Dengue virus, Zika virus, and Japanese encephalitis virus.

71 kDa

Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Lyophilized powder

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
