Product Specs

Form
Lyophilized powder
Note: We will prioritize shipping the format currently in stock. However, if you have specific requirements for the format, please indicate them in your order remarks. We will prepare the product according to 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 inform us in advance as additional fees 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 before opening to ensure the contents settle at the bottom. Please reconstitute the protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. We recommend adding 5-50% glycerol (final concentration) and aliquoting for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final glycerol concentration is 50%. Customers can use this as a reference.
Shelf Life
Shelf life is influenced by various factors, including storage conditions, buffer composition, storage temperature, and the protein's inherent stability.
Generally, the shelf life of the liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of the 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.

Target Background

Function
This protein acts as a water channel, facilitating water transport across cell membranes. It functions as a heteromer with PIP1-1, PIP2-1, PIP2-4, or PIP2-5, but not as a homomer.
Gene References Into Functions
  1. ZmPIP1;2 and ZmPIP2;5 play a role in regulating root water uptake and cortex cell hydraulic conductivity in maize. PMID: 21950760
Database Links
Protein Families
MIP/aquaporin (TC 1.A.8) family, PIP (TC 1.A.8.11) subfamily
Subcellular Location
Cell membrane; Multi-pass membrane protein.
Tissue Specificity
Highly expressed in developing tassels and at lower levels in roots, shoots, ears and embryos. Expressed in the root growing zone at 5-6 mm from the root tip. Expressed in xylem parenchyma.
