HIV-1 TAT Recombinant- produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 86 amino acids encoded by two exons and having chain having a molecular mass of 14kDa.
Accession Number: 62291022
Amino Acid Sequence
MEPVDPRLEP WKHPGSQPKT ACTNCYCKKC CFHCQVCFIT KALGISYGRK KRRQRRRPPQ GSQTHQVSLS KQPTSQSRGD PTGPKE.
Formulation
Lyophilized with 0.1% glycerol.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered and lyophilized, though might appear as a solution as a result of the glycerol content.
Purity
Greater than 90.0% as determined by HPLC analysis and SDS-PAGE.
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized HIV-1 TAT in sterile 18M?-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Source
Specificity
Immunoreactive with all sera of HIV-1 infected individuals.
Storage
Lyophilized HIV-1 TAT although stable at room temperature for 1 week, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution HIV-1 TAT should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long-term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
