Abbreviation: SPAG5
Target Synonym: Sperm-associated antigen 5;SPAG5;Astrin;Deepest;Mitotic spindle-associated protein p126
Target Species: Human
Expression Host: E.coli
Fusion Tag: N-His & C-His
UNIProt ID: Q96R06
Background: Astrin is a homodimeric protein with a globular head domain and a long stalk. It is an essential component of the mitotic spindle. Astrin is highly expressed in testis and is detected at low levels in placenta, liver, pancreas, thymus and colon. Its expression is cell cycle-regulated, with an increase from prophase to cytokinesis and return to basal levels at the next G1 phase. In non-dividing cells Astrin is associated with microtubules unless under cellular stress, then it is localized in stress granules.
Sequence: Asn 482-Ala 850
Purity: > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Formulation: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.
Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
