Cat#:RP-4456H;Product Name:Recombinant Maltose Binding Protein / MBP Protein;Synonym:MBP,Maltose Binding Protein;Background:Maltose-binding protein (MBP) is a part of the maltose/maltodextrin system of Escherichia coli, which is responsible for the uptake and efficient catabolism of maltodextrins. It is a complex regulatory and transport system involving many proteins and protein complexes. MBP has an approximate molecular mass of 42.5 kilodaltons.;Description:Recombinant Maltose Binding Protein expressed in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 387aa (27 to 392) with additional 20aa linker and having a molecular mass of 42kDa.;Source:E.coli;AA Sequence:MKIEEGKLVI WINGDKGYNG LAEVGKKFEK DTGIKVTVEH PDKLEEKFPQ VAATGDGPDI IFWAHDRFGG YAQSGLLAEI TPDKAFQDKL YPFTWDAVRY NGKLIAYPIAVEALSLIYNK DLLPNPPKTW EEIPALDKEL KAKGKSALMF NLQEPYFTWP LIAADGGYAF KYENGKYDIK DVGVDNAGAK AGLTFLVDLI KNKHMNADTD YSIAEAAFNK GETAMTINGP WAW;Molecular Characterization:42kDa;Purity:Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.;Formulation:The Maltose Binding Protein solution (1 mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl pH-8.;Stability:Recombinant MBP Proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70℃;Storage:Store Maltose-binding protein at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.;References:Duplay, P; Bedouelle, H; Fowler, A; Zabin, I; Saurin, W; Hofnung, M (1984).
