Recombinant Human Thioredoxin-2/TXN2 Protein

None

Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.

Thioredoxin-2 (TXN2) is a mitochondrial member of the thioredoxin family. Thioredoxin-2 is extensively expressed in adult and fetal tissues. Thioredoxin-2 contains an N-terminal 59 amino acid transit peptide; which is cleaved before translocating to mitochondria. Mitochondrial thioredoxin play important roles in the regulation of the mitochondrial membrane potential and in protection against oxidant-induced apoptosis. Thioredoxin-2 could be involved in the resistance to anti-tumor agents and possesses a dithiol-reducing activity. In addition; Thioredoxin-2 is important at low oxidative stress conditions.

< 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Normally 5% - 8% trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.

Recombinant Human Thioredoxin-2 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Thr60-Gly166 is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus.
