| Sequence: | Met 1-Gln 322 |
| Accession: | P55735 |
| Storage: | Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months. |
| Shipping: | This product is provided as lyophilized powder which is shipped with ice packs. |
| 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. |
| Reconstitution: | Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information. |
| Background: | Sec13 is a ubiquitously expressed protein which participates in the formation of vesicles in the COPII complex with Sec23p.Sec24p, Sar1p and Sec31. The COPII vesicle budding complex was first described in the yeast system and was shown to provide coat proteins in the early secretory pathway. Sec13 is recruited to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes where it forms a three dimensional cuboctahedron cage lattice structure by association with Sec31. This vesicular structure is necessary for ER-Golgi transport. |
