Recombinant YFP-Human KPTN Protein

Product Name: Recombinant YFP-Human KPTN Protein
Catalog #:  HRP-3440
Manufacture:  LD Biopharma, Inc.
Intruduction:

Human KICSTOR complex protein kaptin (KPTN) gene encodes a protein which is part of the KICSTOR complex functions in the amino acid-sensing branch of the TORC1 signaling pathway. Recruits, in an amino acid-independent manner, the GATOR1 complex to the lysosomal membranes and allows its interaction with GATOR2 and the RAG GTPases. KPTN functions upstream of the RAG GTPases and is required to negatively regulate mTORC1 signaling in absence of amino acids. In absence of the KICSTOR complex mTORC1 is constitutively localized to the lysosome and activated. The KICSTOR complex is also probably involved in the regulation of mTORC1 by glucose.

Full-length human KPTN cDNA (435aa, Isoform-I) was constructed with codon optimization gene synthesis and expressed with YFP Protein as N-terminal (YFP; 256aa) fusion protein in E.coli as inclusion bodies. The final product was refolded using our unique “temperature shift inclusion body refolding” technology and chromatographically purified.

Applications:
  1. May be used for in vitro KPTN protein mediated signaling in mTOR pathway regulation for cancer cell study using intracellular delivery of recombinant human YFP-KPTN protein with protein delivery reagent such as ProFectin. 
  2. May be used for KPTN protein-protein interaction assay.
  3. May be used as specific substrate protein for KPTN specific kinase, and ubiquitin (Sumo pathway) related enzyme functional screening assays.
  4. Potential therapeutic protein, modulating KPTN activity may be benefit for selective cancer treatment. 
  5. As native human KPTN antigen for its specific antibody production.
Quality Control: Purity: > 92 % by SDS-PAGE.
