Description

Introduction to Recombinant Blatta lateralis Pyrokinin-5

Recombinant Blatta lateralis Pyrokinin-5 is a synthetically produced neuropeptide derived from the German cockroach (Blatta lateralis). Pyrokinins are a family of insect neuropeptides characterized by a conserved C-terminal FXPRLamide motif, which is critical for receptor binding and physiological activity . This recombinant variant is generated using genetic engineering techniques to enable functional studies of pyrokinin signaling in insect physiology, pest control research, and comparative neuroendocrinology.

Production and Expression Systems

This recombinant protein is produced in multiple heterologous systems to accommodate diverse experimental needs:

The yeast-derived variant (CSB-YP308809BHH) is the most commonly documented .

Applications in Research

Recombinant Blatta lateralis Pyrokinin-5 is utilized in:

  1. Ligand-receptor interaction studies: To map binding domains of PK receptors.

  2. Physiological assays: Testing muscle contraction in cockroach or tick tissues .

  3. Pest control development: Targeting PK signaling pathways to disrupt feeding or reproduction in insects .

Product Specs

Form
Lyophilized powder. We will ship the available format, but you can specify your preferred format when ordering.
Lead Time
Delivery times vary by purchase method and location. Consult your local distributor for specifics. Proteins are shipped with blue ice packs by default; request dry ice in advance for an extra fee.
Notes
Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Working aliquots are stable at 4°C for up to one week.
Reconstitution
Briefly centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute in sterile deionized water to 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Add 5-50% glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final glycerol concentration is 50%.
Shelf Life
Shelf life depends on storage conditions, buffer, temperature, and protein stability. Liquid form is generally stable for 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. Lyophilized form is generally stable for 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.
Storage Condition
Store at -20°C/-80°C upon receipt. Aliquot for multiple uses. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Tag Info
The tag type is determined during manufacturing. If you require a specific tag, please let us know and we will prioritize its development.
