Background The universal deregulation of c-Myc gene expression in tumor cells suggests that this oncogene represents an attractive target for cancer therapeutic purposes. The c-Myc promoter integrates diverse mitogenic signalling cascades, which are constitutively activated in tumor cells, and translates them into expression of the c-Myc transcription factor, which promotes cell proliferation, growth, differentiation, and apoptosis by regulating the expression of numerous target genes (1-3). The structural and biochemical features of the MYC family (MYC, N-MYC, and L-MYC) mark them as direct regulators of gene expression. As basic helix-loop-helix leucine zipper proteins (bHLH-ZIP), the MYCs acquire the capacity to bind the DNA sequence CACGTG (E-box) when dimerized with MAX (another bHLH-ZIP, 4,5). A head-to-tail pair of MYC-MAX dimers may, in turn, form a heterotetramer capable of bridging distant E-boxes (6). Among the broadly distributed positive enforcers of MYC action that are often recruited to target genes are chromatin remodeling (SWI/SNF relatives) and modifying complexes (TRAPP/GCN5 and relatives); these complexes mobilize nucleosomes and acetylate histones and/or other targets to activate gene expression (4, 7, 8). MYC binds TBP along an auxiliary pathway to control gene expression. MAD and MNT generally oppose MYC action by enlisting histone deacetylase complexes. Besides acting at the level of chromatin, MYC may also operate at later stages of the transcription cycle, after pre-initiation complex formation (9). In addition to using generic chromatin complexes to up- or down-regulate transcription, the MYC network also conscripts individual factors to modify expression locally on an ad hoc basis. For example, YY1, AP2, MIZ1, SP1, BRCA1, and other proteins interact directly with MYC, and so may directly modify the output of the MYC network (10, 11).

Proteins are sensitive to heat, and freeze-drying can preserve the activity of the majority of proteins. It improves protein stability, extends storage time, and reduces shipping costs. However, freeze-drying can also lead to the loss of the active portion of the protein and cause aggregation and denaturation issues. Nonetheless, these adverse effects can be minimized by incorporating protective agents such as stabilizers, additives, and excipients, and by carefully controlling various lyophilization conditions.

Commonly used protectant include saccharides, polyols, polymers, surfactants, some proteins and amino acids etc. We usually add 8% (mass ratio by volume) of trehalose and mannitol as lyoprotectant. Trehalose can significantly prevent the alter of the protein secondary structure, the extension and aggregation of proteins during freeze-drying process; mannitol is also a universal applied protectant and fillers, which can reduce the aggregation of certain proteins after lyophilization.

Our protein products do not contain carrier protein or other additives (such as bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA) and sucrose, etc., and when lyophilized with the solution with the lowest salt content, they often cannot form A white grid structure, but a small amount of protein is deposited in the tube during the freeze-drying process, forming a thin or invisible transparent protein layer.

Reminder: Before opening the tube cap, we recommend that you quickly centrifuge for 20-30 seconds in a small centrifuge, so that the protein attached to the tube cap or the tube wall can be aggregated at the bottom of the tube. Our quality control procedures ensure that each tube contains the correct amount of protein, and although sometimes you can't see the protein powder, the amount of protein in the tube is still very precise.
