Recombinant Human Fibrillarin Protein, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: FBL-83H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human Fibrillarin Protein (1-321) is produced by E. coli expression system. This protein is fused with a GST tag at the N-terminal.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: GST
• ProteinLength: 1-321
• Description: Human recombinant fibrillarin (residues 2-321; Genbank Accession # NM_001436; MW= 61.3 kDa) expressed as an N-terminal GST-fusion protein in E. coli. Fibrillarin is a component of nucleolar ribonucleoprotein complexes including snoRNPs (small nucleolar ribonucleoproteins) and Cajal bodies. As part of the C/D snoRNPs, fibrillarin functions as the catalytic subunit in the 2’-O methylation of ribosomal RNAs1. In addition, fibrillarin has recently been shown to catalyze methylation of histone H2A glutamine-104, a modification restricted to the nucleolus and linked to RNA Pol I transcriptional activity on rDNA3. A distinct protein subcomplex comprising fibrillarin, SF2A-p32 and the argininine methyltransferases PRMT1 and PRMT5 has been described4 and fibrillarin’s N-terminal glycine and arginine-rich (GAR) domain, including in the context of full-length fibrillarin5, is a substrate for various PRMTs.
• Form: 50 mM Tris HCl, pH 7.5, 500 mM NaCl, 1 mM TCEP, 10 % glycerol
• Molecular Mass: 60.3 kDa
• Purity: >95% by SDS-PAGE
• Notes: This product is NOT intended for therapeutic or diagnostic use in animals or in humans.
• Storage: Store at -70 centigrade. Thaw quickly and store on ice before use. The remaining, unused, undiluted protein should be snap frozen, for example in a dry/ice ethanol bath or liquid nitrogen. Minimize freeze/thaws if possible, but very low volume aliquots (<5 µl) or storage of diluted protein is not recommended.
