VTA1, 1-307aa , Human, His tag, E.coli

VTA1 (Vps20-associated 1 homolog), also known as LIP5 (LYST-interacting protein 5), DRG1 (Dopamine-responsive protein DRG-1), SBP1 (SKD1 bindingprotein 1), belongs to the VTA1 family. This protein Involved in the endosomal multivesicular bodies (MVB) pathway. MVBs contain intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) that are generated by invagination and scission from the limiting membrane of the endosome and mostly are delivered to lysosomes enabling degradation of membrane proteins, such as stimulated growth factor receptors, lysosomal enzymes and lipids. Also, VTA1 is known to interact with CHMP1B, CHMP2A, CHMP5, VPS4B, KIAA0174 (IST1) and possibly CHMP3. Recombinant human VTA1 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.

Can be stored at +4C short term (1-2 weeks). For long term storage, aliquot and store at -20C or -70C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing cycles.
