Cyclin E Protein, Human, Recombinant

• Background:

  Cyclin E1 is a member of the highly conserved cyclin family and belongs to the E-type cyclin that functions as a regulator of S phase entry and progression in mammalian cells. Cyclin E1 serves as regulatory subunits that bind, activate, and provide substrate for its associated cyclin-dependent kinase2 (CDK2), whose activity is essential for cell cycle G1 / S transition. Over expression of this encoding gene has been found in many tumors, which results in chromosome instability and by extension, induce tumorigenesis. This protein was also found to associate with, and be involved in, the phosphorylation of NPAT protein (nuclear protein mapped to the ATM locus), which participates in cell-cycle regulated histone gene expression and plays a critical role in promoting cell-cycle progression in the absence of pRB. In general, cyclin E1, as an activator of phospho-CDK2 (pCDK2), is important for cell cycle progression and is frequently overexpressed in cancer cells.

• Synonyms:

  CCNE Protein, Human

• Gene Name:

  Cyclin E1

• Expression System:

  Baculovirus-Insect Cells

• Tag:

  No tag

• Endotoxin:

  < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.

• Purity:

  > 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE.

• Activity:

  At Leading Biology, the biological activity of a recombinant protein is routinely measured using a bioassay, e.g. chemotaxis or cell proliferation assay, enzyme assay, or a functional ELISA. When a recombinant protein is an enzyme, specific activity is derived from an enzymatic assay. Each enzyme is tested for potency by cleavage of a substrate. We are in the process of updating the biological activity data. If you have any questions regarding this update, please feel free to contact our technical support team.

• Form:

  Lyophilized

• Buffer:

  Lyophilized from sterile 20mM Tris, 500mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, pH 7.4. Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA.

• Function:

  Diagnostic proteins

• Molecular Weight:

  The secreted recombinant human CCNE1 consists of 412 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 47.2 KDa. The apparent molecular mass of the protein is approximately 48 KDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions due to glycosylation.

• Storage Conditions:

  In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature. Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise. Stable for 1 year at -20°C or below from date of shipment. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and opening the cap. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
