HTF-1538 | Recombinant Human CBX3 Protein | $300 |
Product Name: | Recombinant Human CBX3 Protein |
Catalog #: | HTF-1538 |
Manufacture: | LD Biopharma, Inc. |
Intruduction: | At the nuclear envelope, the nuclear lamina and heterochromatin are adjacent to the inner nuclear membrane. The protein encoded by human chromobox protein homolg 3 (CBX3) gene binds DNA and is a component of heterochromatin. CBX3 protein also can bind lamin B receptor, an integral membrane protein found in the inner nuclear membrane. The dual binding functions of the CBX3 protein may explain the association of heterochromatin with the inner nuclear membrane. CBX3 protein binds histone H3 tails trimethylated at Lys-9 sites to mediates the recruitment of the mehtyltransferases SUV39H1 and/or SUV39H2 by the PER complex to the E-box elements of the circadian target genes such as PER2 itself or PER1. CBX3 protein is also recruited to sites of ultraviolet-induced DNA damage and double-strand breaks. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein but differing in the 5' UTR, have been found for CBX3 gene. Full-length human CBX3 cDNA (182aa) was constructed with codon optimization technology and expressed with a small T7-His-TEV cleavage site Tag (29aa) fusion at its N-terminal. This protein is expressed in E.coli as inclusion bodies. It was refolded using our unique “temperature shift inclusion body refolding” technology and chromatographically purified. |
