| Description : |
HSP22 displays temperature-dependent chaperone activity. HSP-22 acts as a mn(2+)-dependent serine-threonine- specific protein kinase. we are not convinced that this is its true role. Defects in HSPB8 are a cause of distal hereditary motor neuropathy type ii (DHMN2) also known as distal spinal muscular atrophy (DSMA) and spinal muscular atrophy of the charcot-marie-tooth type. it is an autosomal dominant disorder of lower motor neurons characterized by distal muscle weakness. |
| Physical Appearance : |
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
| Purity : |
Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Formulation : |
The HSP22 protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution containing 20mM Tris-acetate, pH-7.6, 10mM NaCl, 0.1mM EDTA, 0.1mM PMSF, 15mMβ-ME. |
| Solubility : |
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized HSP22 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
| Stability : |
Lyophilized HSP22 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution HSP22 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. |
| Immunological Activity : |
Immunoreactivity is confirmed by reaction with monoclonal mouse antibodies against HSP22. |
