Description

Protein Overview

Recombinant Salmonella arizonae UPF0259 membrane protein YciC (yciC) is a bacterial membrane-associated protein produced through recombinant DNA technology. It belongs to the UPF0259 family, a group of conserved prokaryotic proteins with roles in membrane integrity and bacterial physiology. This protein is derived from Salmonella enterica subspecies arizonae, a zoonotic pathogen associated with reptile-linked salmonellosis in humans .

Expression and Purification

  • Expression System: Mammalian cell or E. coli (varies by vendor) .

  • Tag: His-tag (N- or C-terminal, determined during production) .

  • Protein Length: Full-length (1–247 amino acids) .

  • Purity: >85% (SDS-PAGE) .

Product Specs

Form
Supplied as a lyophilized powder.
Note: While we prioritize shipping the format currently in stock, please specify your format preference during ordering for fulfillment.
Lead Time
Delivery times vary depending on the purchasing method and location. Please contact your local distributor for precise delivery estimates.
Note: All proteins are shipped with standard blue ice packs. Dry ice shipping requires prior arrangement and incurs additional charges.
Notes
Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week.
Reconstitution
Centrifuge the vial briefly before opening to consolidate the contents. Reconstitute the protein in sterile deionized 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 to -20°C/-80°C. Our standard glycerol concentration is 50% and can serve as a guideline.
Shelf Life
Shelf life depends on various factors, including storage conditions, buffer composition, temperature, and the protein's inherent stability.
Generally, liquid formulations have a 6-month shelf life at -20°C/-80°C, while lyophilized forms have a 12-month shelf life at -20°C/-80°C.
Storage Condition
Upon receipt, store at -20°C/-80°C. Aliquoting is essential for multiple uses. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Tag Info
The tag type is determined during the manufacturing process.
The specific tag type is finalized during production. If you require a specific tag, please inform us, and we will prioritize its development.
