Lyophilized powder
Note: We will prioritize shipping the format that we have in stock. However, if you require a specific format, please specify your needs in the order remarks, and we will fulfill your request.
Lead Time
Delivery time may vary depending on the purchasing method and location. Please consult your local distributors for specific delivery times.
Note: All of our proteins are shipped with standard blue ice packs by default. If you require dry ice shipping, please contact us in advance as additional charges will apply.
Notes
Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week.
Reconstitution
We recommend centrifuging the vial briefly prior to 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. We suggest adding 5-50% glycerol (final concentration) and aliquoting for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our standard final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers may use this as a reference.
Shelf Life
Shelf life is influenced by various factors including storage conditions, buffer ingredients, temperature, and the protein's inherent stability.
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
Upon receipt, store at -20°C/-80°C. Aliquoting is necessary for multiple uses. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Target Background

Function
Cytochrome b561 (cyb561) is a transmembrane reductase that utilizes ascorbate as an electron donor in the cytoplasm. It transfers electrons across membranes to reduce monodehydro-L-ascorbate radical within the lumen of secretory vesicles. This function is critical for the regeneration and homeostasis of ascorbate within secretory vesicles, providing reducing equivalents necessary to support the activity of intravesicular enzymes.
