Recombinant Human S100 Calcium Binding Protein A5

S100 calcium binding protein A5 (S100A5) belongs to the S100 family of proteins containing 2 EF-hand calcium-binding motifs. S100 family members are localized in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of a wide range of cells, and are involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and differentiation. S100A5 has a Ca2+ affinity 20-100 fold higher than the other S100 proteins investigated under identical conditions. Furthermore, S100A5 protein binds Zn2+ and Cu2+, and Cu2+ strongly which harms the binding of Ca2+. S100A5 is expressed in very limited regions of the adult brain.

Escherichia Coli.

The S100A5 solution (1mg/1ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 1mM DTT, 30% glycerol, 0.1M NaCl and 0.1mM PMSF.
