Description
Description: hchA produced in E Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 303 amino acids (1-283 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 33.3kDa.hchA is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introduction: Escherichia coli Hsp31 (HchA) is a homodimeric member of the ThiI/DJ-1/PfpI superfamily which combines molecular chaperone and aminopeptidase activities. HchA uses temperature-induced exposure of structured hydrophobic domains to capture and stabilize early unfolding protein intermediates under severe thermal stress
