Tag Info
N-terminal 6xHis-SUMO-tagged
Form
Liquid or 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
If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol.
Note: If you have any special requirement for the
glycerol content, please remark when you place the order.
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 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
3-7 business days
Notes
Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week.

Description
The region for expressing recombinant Human GFRAL contains amino acids 19-351. This GFRAL protein is theoretically predicted to have a molecular weight of 53.8 kDa. Expression of this GFRAL protein is conducted in e.coli. Fusion of the N-terminal 6xHis-SUMO tag into the GFRAL encoding gene fragment was conducted, allowing for easier detection and purification of the GFRAL protein in subsequent stages.
Human GDNF family receptor alpha-like (GFRAL) is a receptor associated with energy homeostasis. GFRAL mainly functions to mediate the effects of the GDNF family ligands on appetite regulation and body weight. Investigating GFRAL provides insights into neuroendocrine signaling, metabolic disorders, and cancer-related wasting, offering potential applications in developing interventions for obesity, metabolic diseases, and cancer-associated cachexia. In metabolic research, GFRAL is crucial for understanding mechanisms underlying obesity and metabolic disorders. Targeting GFRAL presents a potential avenue for developing anti-obesity therapeutics. Additionally, GFRAL's role in cancer cachexia implicates it in cancer research.
