Formulation

Recombinant protein stored in 50mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.5, 150mM NaCl, 10mM glutathione, 0.1mM EDTA, 0.25mM DTT, 0.1mM PMSF, 25% glycerol.

Storage and Stability

o Store product at –70 C. For optimal storage, aliquot target into smaller quantities after centrifugation and store at recommended temperature. For most favorable performance, avoid repeated handling and multiple freeze/thaw cycles.

Scientific Background

SIRT4 is a member of the sirtuin family of which are homologs to the yeast Sir2 protein. Sirtuin family contain a sirtuin core domain and are grouped into four SIRT4 Protein classes with SIRT4 being a member of class IV. SIRT4 lacks Full-length recombinant protein expressed in E. coli cells deacetylase activity but has ADP-ribosyltransferase Catalog Number activity (1). Immunoprecipitation analysis shows that SIRT4 S38-30EG interacts with the mitochondrial enzyme glutamate Specific Lot Number M334-4 dehydrogenase (GDH), and functional analysis show that Purity >70% SIRT4 ADP-ribosylates and inhibits GDH (2).
