Description

Gene and Protein Structure

The MT-ND4L gene in Propithecus tattersalli encodes a 98-amino-acid protein critical for mitochondrial energy production. Key structural features include:

  • Amino Acid Sequence: MPSIFINIILAFATALLGTLVFRSHLMSSLLCLEGMmLSMFILSTLIILNMHFTMSFMMP ILLLVFAACEAAVGLALLVMVSNTYGLDYIQNLNLLQC .

  • Uniprot ID: Q7ISH5 .

  • Molecular Weight: ~11 kDa .

  • Membrane Localization: Multi-pass membrane protein embedded in the mitochondrial inner membrane .

The protein is part of the hydrophobic core of Complex I, contributing to electron transport and proton pumping .

Function in Biological Context

While the recombinant protein’s functionality has not been directly studied, its native counterpart in humans and other species participates in:

ProcessRole
Electron TransportTransfers electrons from NADH to ubiquinone, initiating oxidative phosphorylation .
Proton PumpingContributes to the proton gradient across the mitochondrial membrane, driving ATP synthesis .
Mitochondrial HealthMutations in MT-ND4L in humans are linked to Leber’s Hereditary Optic Neuropathy (LHON) and metabolic disorders .

Product Specs

Form
Lyophilized powder
Note: We will prioritize shipping the format currently in stock. However, if you have specific format requirements, please indicate them in your order. We will prepare the product according to your needs.
Lead Time
Delivery time may vary based on the purchase method or location. Please consult your local distributors for specific delivery timeframes.
Note: All proteins are shipped with standard blue ice packs. If you require dry ice shipping, please communicate this in advance as additional fees will apply.
Notes
Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. For optimal results, store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week.
Reconstitution
We recommend centrifuging the vial briefly before opening to ensure the contents settle at the bottom. Reconstitute the protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. For long-term storage, we recommend adding 5-50% glycerol (final concentration) and aliquoting the solution at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final glycerol concentration is 50%. Customers can use this as a reference.
Shelf Life
The shelf life is influenced by various factors, including storage conditions, buffer components, storage temperature, and the intrinsic stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.
Storage Condition
Store at -20°C/-80°C upon receipt. Aliquoting is necessary for multiple uses. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Tag Info
The tag type will be determined during the manufacturing process.
We will determine the tag type during production. If you have specific tag requirements, please inform us, and we will prioritize the development of the specified tag.
