Recombinant Human PA28 Activator alpha Subunit Protein, CF Summary

Product Specifications

Purity
>95%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by Colloidal Coomassie® Blue stain.
Activity
Recombinant Human PA28 Activator alpha Subunit is ideal for the activation of latent 20S Proteasome complexes. Reaction conditions will need to be optimized for each specific application. Initially, we recommend a 5- to 15-fold molar excess of Recombinant Human PA28 Activator alpha Subunit relative to 20S Proteasome.

Carrier Free

What does CF mean?

CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.

What formulation is right for me?

In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: PA28 Activator alpha Subunit

The Proteasome Activator 28 (PA28) Regulatory Complex, also known as the 11S Regulatory (REG) Complex, is a ring-shaped, multimeric, ATP-independent regulatory complex that can bind to one or both ends of the 20S Proteasome or 20S Immunoproteasome (1,2). The PA28 Regulatory Complex stimulates the proteasome to hydrolyze small peptides, but not ubiquitinated proteins, for the production of peptides for MHC class I antigen presentation (3-7). Three PA28 Regulatory Complex subunits, alpha, beta, and gamma, have been identified and can oligomerize to form the PA28 Regulatory Complex (8-10). While the expression of the PA28 alpha and beta subunits are induced by IFN-gamma, the PA28 gamma subunit is not significantly affected (11,12).  In vivo, PA28 alpha forms hetero-heptamers or -hexamers with PA28 beta (13-15). PA28 alpha can also form active homo-heptamers in vitro and can be used to activate the 20S Proteasome (3,16). In addition to regulating production of MHC class I antigens, PA28 alpha may protect against oxidative stress (17).
