Brand: CUSABIO
SKU: CSB-CF352724ENV

Product Details

Description	Recombinant Escherichia coli Aquaporin Z (aqpZ) (Active) is a full length protein expressed with N-terminal 6xHis-tagged in vitro E.coli expression system. Its expression region corresponds to 1-231aa of E.coli aqpZ protein. Its purity was determined by SDS-PAGE and reached up to 90% and presented a molecular mass band around 25 kDa on the gel. It was validated to be biologically active through functional ELISA analyses. This recombinant aqpZ protein may be used to synthesize antibodies against aqpZ or on the studies of aqpZ-associated signal transduction. This recombinant aqpZ proteins in-stock are available. aqpZ is a channel that permits osmotically driven movement of water in both directions. It is involved in the osmoregulation and in the maintenance of cell turgor during volume expansion in rapidly growing cells. It mediates rapid entry or exit of water in response to abrupt changes in osmolarity. Evidence shows that induction of an immune response against AqpZ can trigger an autoimmune reaction against human Aqp4 and inflammation of the central nervous system.
Purity	Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Activity	Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized aqpZ at 5 μg/ml can bind E.coli ytfE, the EC50 of E.coli ytfE protein is 197.90-259.70 μg/ml.

Target Background

Function (From Uniprot)	Channel that permits osmotically driven movement of water in both directions. It is involved in the osmoregulation and in the maintenance of cell turgor during volume expansion in rapidly growing cells. It mediates rapid entry or exit of water in response to abrupt changes in osmolarity.
Gene References into Functions	Induction of an immune response against AqpZ or its homologous regions can also trigger an autoimmune reaction against human Aqp4 and inflammation of the central nervous system. PMID: 23008451 Data show that the open and closed states of AqpZ directly relate to the side chain conformation of residue R189. PMID: 21315687 the 2.5 A resolution structure of AqpZ suggests aquaporin selectivity results both from a steric mechanism due to pore size and from specific amino acid substitutions that regulate the preference for a hydrophobic or hydrophilic substrate PMID: 14691544 the difference in Arg-189 displacements is correlated with a strong electron density between first transmembrane helices of two open channels; the observed Arg-189 conformations are stabilized by asymmetrical subunit interactions in tAqpZ PMID: 16239219 analysis of of Escherichia coli aquaporin AqpZ and GlpF single-channel water permeabilities PMID: 16399837 biochemical analysis of permeability and solute transport characteristics of amphiphilic triblock-polymer vesicles containing the bacterial water-channel protein Aquaporin Z PMID: 18077364 Show More Hide All
