Conjugate Avi-tag Biotinylated
E. coli biotin ligase (BirA) is highly specific in covalently attaching biotin to the 15 amino acid AviTag peptide. This recombinant protein was biotinylated in vivo by AviTag-BirA technology, which method is BriA catalyzes amide linkage between the biotin and the specific lysine of the AviTag.

Tag Info
Tag type will be determined during the manufacturing process.
The tag type will be determined during production process. If you have specified tag type, please tell us and we will develop the specified tag preferentially.
Form
Lyophilized powder
Note: We will preferentially ship the format that we have in stock, however, if you have any special requirement for the format, please remark your requirement when placing the order, we will prepare according to your demand.
Buffer before Lyophilization
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.
Troubleshooting and FAQs
Storage Condition
Store at -20°C/-80°C upon receipt, aliquoting is necessary for mutiple use. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Shelf Life
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.
Lead Time
Delivery time may differ from different purchasing way or location, please kindly consult your local distributors for specific delivery time.
Note: All of our proteins are default shipped with normal blue ice packs, if you request to ship with dry ice, please communicate with us in advance and extra fees will be charged.
Notes
Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week.

Target Background

Function
Constituent of the membrane attack complex (MAC) that plays a key role in the innate and adaptive immune response by forming pores in the plasma membrane of target cells. C8A inserts into the target membrane, but does not form pores by itself.
Gene References into Functions
  1. C8 alpha and C8 beta have correspondingly similar roles in MAC-mediated lysis of erythrocytes and bacterial killing. C8 gamma is not required for complement-mediated killing of Gram-negative bacteria. PMID: 12413696
  2. Results describe the crystal structure of the human C8 alpha MACPF domain disulfide-linked to C8 gamma (alphaMACPF-gamma) at 2.15 A resolution. PMID: 18440555
  3. The binding specificity between C8 alpha and C8 beta subunits is determined by a cooperative interaction of the N-terminal thrombospondin type 1 module and the membrane attack complex/perforin domain. PMID: 12220191
  4. Both N-terminal modules in C8 alpha have a role in forming the principal binding site for C9, and binding may be dependent on a cooperative interaction between these modules and the C8 alpha membrane attack complex/perforin domain. PMID: 12463754
  5. result suggests that this segment of C8alpha and corresponding segments of the other MAC family members are independently folded domains PMID: 16618117
  6. One can predict that the indel segment of C8alpha assumes a conformation that allows for multiple points of contact with C8gamma. PMID: 16935577
  7. crystal structure of the MACPF domain of complement component C8alpha at 2.5 angstrom resolution was determined and it was shown that it is structurally homologous to the bacterial, pore-forming, cholesterol-dependent cytolysins PMID: 17872444
  8. C8gamma binds an indel peptide of C8alpha sequence and forms a non-covalent complex. PMID: 19048311
