Description
Description: Recombinant Human GroEL, HSP60 produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain fused to a 20 a.a. His tag at N-terminus containing 593 amino acids (1-573 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 63kDa.The HSP60 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introduction: GroEL, HSP60 is a chaperonin located in the mitochondria which is responsible for the transportation & refolding of proteins from the cytoplasm directly into the mitochondrial matrix. GroEL is regulated by the HSP10 cochaperonin, which is a single heptameric protein ring having a molecular mass of 10 kDa which form a unique complex with HSP60. HSP10, GroES coordinates the ATPase activity of the HSP60 subunits in order to allow the release of bound polypeptide in a manner that is productive for its correct folding
