Cat#:RP-O28YL;Product Name:Recombinant E. coli RecA Protein;Synonym:RecA;Background:RecA is a 38 kilodalton protein essential for the repair and maintenance of DNA. A RecA structural and functional homolog has been found in every species in which one has been seriously sought and serves as an archetype for this class of homologous DNA repair proteins. The homologous protein is called RAD51 in eukaryotes and RadA in archaea.;Description:A recombinant E. coli strain overexpressing E. coli recA from a plasmid.;Source:E.coli;Purity:Greater than 95% by SDS-PAGE;Concentration:2.0 mg/mL;Storage:Store the recombinant recA protein at -15 to -25°C;Unit Definition:Sold by mass of pure protein determined at OD280 (A280 = 0.516 at 1 mg/mL, 1cm).;Supplied in:10 mM Tris-HCl,1 mM DTT, 0.1 mM EDTA, 50% glycerol pH 7.5 ;
