Abbreviation: SCO2
Target Synonym: Protein SCO2 homolog;mitochondrial;SCO2;
Target Species: Human
Expression Host: E.coli
Fusion Tag: N-His & C-His
UNIProt ID: O43819
Background: Acts as a copper chaperone, transporting copper to the Cu(A) site on the cytochrome c oxidase subunit II (COX2).Defects in SCO2 are the cause of fatal infantile cardioencephalomyopathy with cytochrome c oxidase deficiency (FIC) . This disease is characterized by hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, lactic acidosis, and gliosis. Heart and skeletal muscle show reductions in cytochrome c oxidase (COX) activity, whereas liver and fibroblasts show mild COX deficiencies.
Sequence: Gly 42-Ser 266
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.
Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.
