Synonyms
Synaptic vesicle membrane protein VAT-1 homolog, VAT1, VATI.
Introduction
Synaptic vesicle membrane protein VAT-1 homolog (VAT1) is a member of the quinone oxidoreductase subfamily of zinc-containing alcohol dehydrogenase proteins. Synaptic vesicles are in charge of regulating the storage and release of neurotransmitters in the nerve terminal. VAT1 has an increased calcium ion-dependent expression in glioblastomas and on wounding, in basal keratinocytes. VAT1 is an abundant integral membrane protein of cholinergic synaptic vesicles and is believed to be involved in vesicular transport.
Description
VAT1 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 413 amino acids (1-393 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 44.1kDa.
VAT1 is fused to a 20 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
E.coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
VAT1 protein solution (0.5mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 1mM DTT, 10% glycerol and 100mM NaCl.
