Product Overview

Tag	His
Host Species	Human
Accession	P12532
Synonym	CKMT, CKMT1, CKMT1A
Background	CKMT1A belongs to the ATP:guanido phosphotransferase family. It contains 1 phosphagen kinase C-terminal domain and 1 phosphagen kinase N-terminal domain. CKMT1A gene is one of two genes which encode the ubiquitous mitochondrial creatine kinase (CKMT1). CKMT1 is responsible for the transfer of high energy phosphate from mitochondria to the cytosolic carrier, creatine. It belongs to the creatine kinase isoenzyme family. It exists as two isoenzymes, sarcomeric MtCK (CKMT2) and ubiquitous MtCK, encoded by separate genes. CKMT1 occurs in two different oligomeric forms: dimers and octamers, in contrast to the exclusively dimeric cytosolic creatine kinase isoenzymes. Ubiquitous mitochondrial creatine kinase has 8% homology with the coding exons of sarcomeric CKMT1.
Description	A DNA sequence encoding human CKMT1A (P12532-1) (Ala40-His417) was expressed, with a His tag at the N-terminus.
Source	Baculovirus-Insect Cells
Predicted N Terminal	His
AA Sequence	Ala40-His417
Molecular Weight	The recombinant human CKMT1A consists of 396 a.a. and predicts a molecular mass of 45.3 KDa. It migrates as an approximately 43 KDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
Purity	>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Endotoxin	< 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method
Formulation	Supplied as sterile 20mM Tris, 500mM NaCl, pH 8.5, 10% gly.
Stability	The recombinant proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70°C.
Usage	For Research Use Only
Storage	Store the protein under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Target Details

Target Function	Reversibly catalyzes the transfer of phosphate between ATP and various phosphogens (e.g. creatine phosphate). Creatine kinase isoenzymes play a central role in energy transduction in tissues with large, fluctuating energy demands, such as skeletal muscle, heart, brain and spermatozoa.
Subcellular Location	Mitochondrion inner membrane; Peripheral membrane protein; Intermembrane side.
Protein Families	ATP:guanido phosphotransferase family
Database References	HGNC: 31736 OMIM: 123290 KEGG: hsa:1159 STRING: 9606.ENSP00000406577 UniGene: Hs.654988

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.
