Recombinant Vibrio splendidus UPF0761 membrane protein VS_0126 is a bioengineered protein derived from Vibrio tasmaniensis (formerly classified under Vibrio splendidus). It belongs to the UPF0761 family, a group of proteins with conserved sequences but uncharacterized functions. This protein is expressed recombinantly in microbial or eukaryotic systems, primarily for research purposes in microbiology, structural biology, and vaccine development.
VS_0126 is synthesized using recombinant DNA technology, with expression hosts varying by manufacturer:
E. coli: Produces full-length or partial proteins with His-tags for affinity purification .
Yeast: Used for partial-length proteins, enabling post-translational modifications .
Mammalian cells/Baculovirus: Reserved for complex glycosylation or structural studies .
Amino Acid Sequence (Full-Length, 1–313 residues):

While no direct functional data exists for VS_0126, its classification as a UPF0761 membrane protein suggests potential roles in:
Membrane Transport: Multi-pass structure implies involvement in ion or solute transport.
Pathogen-Host Interaction: As Vibrio splendidus is a marine pathogen, VS_0126 may contribute to virulence or adhesion .
Though not directly linked to VS_0126, studies on Vibrio splendidus phages (e.g., vB_VspM_VS1) highlight the bacterium’s role in aquaculture diseases. Such research underscores the need for membrane protein studies in understanding pathogen biology .
