Description : |
Human Ubquitin Conjugating Enzyme 9 (Ubc9) is a member of the E2 family and is specific for the conjugation of SUMO to a variety of target proteins. SUMO conjugation to target proteins is mediated by a different, but analogous, pathway to ubiquitinylation. This E2 is unusual in that it interacts directly with protein substrates that are modified by sumolyation, and may play a role in substrate recognition. Ubc9 can mediate the conjugation of SUMO-1 to a variety of proteins including RanGAP1, IκBα, and PML without the requirement of an E3 ligase. |

Physical Appearance : |
Sterile Filtered white lyophilized powder. |
Purity : |
Greater than 95.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
Formulation : |
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated (1 mg/ml) solution in 1X PBS and 1 mM DTT, pH 7.5. |
Solubility : |
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Ubc9 in sterile water not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
Stability : |
Lyophilized Ubc9 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Ubc9 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
