  • Data suggest that the change in tryptophan fluorescence of Y162W mutant of AAG (alkyladenine DNA glycosylase) is extremely rapid upon binding to either damaged or undamaged DNA, much faster than lesion-recognition and nucleotide flipping steps; thus, intercalation by tyrosine may be one of the earliest steps in search for/recognition of DNA damage.

  • The human alkyl-N-purine-DNA glycosylase (ANPG or MPG) excises with high efficiency hypoxanthine residues, deamination product of adenine, when present in DNA. ANPG is by far the most efficient hypoxanthine-DNA glycosylase of all the enzymes tested. PMID: 8016081
  • The human alkyl-N-purine-DNA glycosylase (ANPG or MPG) binds tightly to ethenocytosine adduct when present in DNA. Unlike the ethenopurines, ANPG does not excise ethenocytosine but prevents its repair by forming an abortive protein-DNA complex. PMID: 14761949

    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.
