Recombinant Staphylococcus aureus Staphylococcal complement inhibitor (scn)

Recombinant Staphylococcus aureus Staphylococcal complement inhibitor (scn)

• CAS Number: 9000-83-3
• Gene Name: scn
• UniProt: A7X482
• Expression Region: 32-116aa
• Organism: Staphylococcus aureus (strain Mu3 / ATCC 700698)
• Target Sequence: STSLPTSNEYQNEKLANELKSLLDELNVNELATGSLNTYYKRTIKISGQKAMYALKSKDFKKMSEAKYQLQKIYNEIDEALKSKY
• Tag: N-terminal 10xHis-tagged and C-terminal Myc-tagged
• Source: E.coli
• Field of Research: Others
• Assay Type: In Stock Protein
• Relevance: Involved in countering the first line of host defense mechanisms. Efficiently inhibits opsonization, phagocytosis and killing of S.aureus by human neutrophils. Acts by binding and stabilizing human C3 convertases (C4b2a and C3bBb), leading to their inactivation. The convertases are no longer able to cleave complement C3, therefore preventing further C3b deposition on the bacterial surface and phagocytosis of the bacterium. Also prevents C5a-induced neutrophil responses.
• Purity: Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
• Activity: Not test
• Length: Full Length of Mature Protein
• 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℃/-80℃. 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℃/-80℃. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20℃/-80℃.
