ACBP, 1-87aa, Human, His tag, E.coli

ACBP, also known as ACBD1, is a diazepam binding inhibitor, a protein that is regulated by hormones and is involved in lipid metabolism and the displacement of beta-carbolines and benzodiazepines, which modulate signal transduction at type A gamma-aminobutyric acid receptors located in brain synapses. Expression of ACBP is significantly induced during adipocyte differentiation. ACBP is a target for proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)gamma, and is directly activated by PPARgamma/RXRalpha and PPARalpha/RXRalpha, but not by PPARdelta/RXRalpha. Recombinant human ACBP protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.

Can be stored at +4C short term (1-2 weeks). For long term storage, aliquot and store at -20C or -70C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing cycles.
