• Organism:

  Pandinus imperator (Emperor scorpion)

• Target Sequence:

  FWGALAKGALKLIPSLFSSFSKKD

• Tag:

  N-terminal 6xHis-tagged

• Type:

  Developed Protein

• Source:

  Yeast

• Field of Research:

  Others

• Relevance:

  Disrupts cell membranes through formation of pores. Has strong antimicrobial activity against Gram-positive bacteria B.subtilis, S.epidermidis, E.faecalis and S.aureus. Is less active against Gram-negative bacteria P.aeruginosa and E.coli. Also increases efficacy of antibiotics (ampicillin, chloramphenicol, streptomycin, kanamycin, novobiocin) when tested against E.coli, probably by facilitating their incorporation into the bacteria. Possesses antifungal activity against C.albicans and hemolytic activity against human, sheep and pig erythrocytes.

• Endotoxin:

  Not test

• Purity:

  Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

• Activity:

  Not Test

• Form:

  Liquid or Lyophilized powder

• Buffer:

  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.

• Reconstitution:

  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.

• Storage Conditions:

  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.
