Recombinant Human MITF Protein, GST-His-tagged

• Cat.No.: MITF-738H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human MITF, transcript variant 5, fused with N-terminal GST and C-terminal His was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: GST&His
• Description: This gene encodes a transcription factor that contains both basic helix-loop-helix and leucine zipper structural features. It regulates the differentiation and development of melanocytes retinal pigment epithelium and is also responsible for pigment cell-specific transcription of the melanogenesis enzyme genes. Heterozygous mutations in the this gene cause auditory-pigmentary syndromes, such as Waardenburg syndrome type 2 and Tietz syndrome. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified.
• Form: 25mM Tris, pH8.0, 150mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, 1% Sarkosyl.
• Molecular Mass: 74.1 kDa
• Purity: > 80% as determined by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining
• Concentration: >50 ug/mL as determined by microplate BCA method
