Description
Description: SQSTM1 Human Recombinant produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 264 amino acids (1-356 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 39.7 kDa. SQSTM1 protein is fused to an 8 amino acid His-Tag at C-terminus and purified by standard chromatography.
Introduction: SQSTM1 is an adapter protein which binds ubiquitin and mediates the activation of NFKB1 by TNF-a, NGF and IL-1. SQSTM1 is involved in titin/TTN downstream signaling in muscle cells. SQSTM1 controls signaling cascades through ubiquitination. SQSTM1 participates in cell differentiation, apoptosis, immune response and regulation of K(+) channels. Mutations in UBA domain of the SQSTM1 protein cause Paget's disease because the UBA is essential for aggregate sequestration and cell survival
