Recombinant Human G Protein-Coupled Receptor Kinase 1, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: GRK1-1018H
• Product Overview: Full-length recombinant human GRK1 was expressed by baculovirus in Sf9 insect cells using an N-terminal GST tag.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Sf9 Cells
• Tag: GST
• Description: GRK1 is a member of the guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein)-coupled receptor kinase subfamily of the Ser/Thr protein kinases. GRK1 mediates rapid desensitization of rod photoreceptors to light by catalyzing phosphorylation of the visual pigment rhodopsin which leads to its deactivation. Defects in GRK1 are known to cause Oguchi disease 2 (also known as stationary night blindness Oguchi type-2).
• Applications: Kinase Assay; Western Blot
• Molecular Weight: 95 kDa
• Expression System: Sf9 insect cells using baculovirus
• Form: Recombinant protein stored in 50 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 150 mM NaCl, 10 mM glutathione, 0.1 mM EDTA, 0.25 mM DTT, 0.1 mM PMSF, 25% glycerol.
• Purity: >95%
• Concentration: 0.1 ug/ul
• Specific Activity: 4.3 nmol/min/mg
