Recombinant Human SLC1A2 Protein, GST-tagged

• Cat.No.: SLC1A2-22H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human SLC1A2 Protein is produced by Wheat Germ (in vitro) expression system. This protein is fused with a GST tag at the N-terminal.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Wheat Germ
• Tag: GST
• Protein Length: 1-574 a.a.
• Description: This gene encodes a member of a family of solute transporter proteins. The membrane-bound protein is the principal transporter that
  clears the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate from the extracellular space at synapses in the central nervous system. Glutamate clearance is necessary for proper synaptic activation and to prevent neuronal damage from excessive activation of glutamate receptors. Mutations in and decreased expression of this protein are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. Alternatively spliced
  transcript variants of this gene have been described, but their full-length nature is not known.
• Form: 50 mM Tris-HCI, 10 mM reduced Glutathione, pH=8.0 in the elution buffer.
