Description
FK506 binding protein 6, also known as FKBP6, is a member of the immunophilin protein family, which play a role in immunoregulation and basic cellular processes involving protein folding and trafficking. ubiquitously expressed in all tissues, FKBP6 is present at highest levels in testis, liver, kidney, skeletal muscle and heart. Deletion of FKBP6 may contribute to hypercalcemia and growth delay in Williams-Beuren syndrome. Recombinant human FKBP6, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques
