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.
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.
Notes
Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week.

Description

The production of this Recombinant Human GALC protein started with the GALC gene synthesis. And then using recombinant DNA technology, the GALC gene was inserted into an expression vector so that we could get the recombinant express plasmid of GALC. Transform the plasmid into the cells of Yeast, culture the cells and we could get the desired Recombinant Human GALC protein. But the work was not completed, protein purification and a strict QC system were performed in the last step. The purity is 90%+ determined by SDS-PAGE.

GALC is a gene providing an instruction of making a protein named galactocerebrosidase (GALC) in human. The protein encoded by this gene has several alternative names, including galactocerebroside beta-galactosidase, galactosylceramidase1 and galactosylceramide beta-galactosidase. GALC protein is an enzyme that removes galactose from ceramide derivatives (galactosylceramides). This protein is involved in three biological processes, including galactosylceramide catabolic process, glycosphingolipid metabolic process and myelination.

Target Background

Function
Hydrolyzes the galactose ester bonds of glycolipids such as galactosylceramide and galactosylsphingosine. Enzyme with very low activity responsible for the lysosomal catabolism of galactosylceramide, a major lipid in myelin, kidney and epithelial cells of small intestine and colon.

  2. The authors present the structure of a glycosphingolipid-processing complex, revealing how SapA and GALC form a heterotetramer with an open channel connecting the enzyme active site to the SapA hydrophobic cavity. PMID: 29323104

  4. Results show for the first time that during normal aging, psychosine metabolism is progressively dysfunctional, leading to its accumulation in the aging brain, especially in regions vulnerable to degeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD). These results underline the possibility that defects in the metabolism mediated by changes in GALC activity modify the risk of developing alpha-synuclein pathology in vulnerable patients.
