Database References	HGNC: 1908 OMIM: 200150 KEGG: hsa:23230 STRING: 9606.ENSP00000353422 UniGene: PMID: 28244758 These results suggest that PI3P regulates the functioning of Vps13, both in protein trafficking and actin cytoskeleton organization. Attenuation of PI3P-binding ability in the mutant hVps13A protein may be one of the reasons for its mislocalization and disrupted function in cells of patients suffering from chorea-acanthocytosis . PMID: 28334785 Chorein is a stimulator of Orai1 expression and thus of store operated Ca2+ entry. PMID: 27960157 Patients with chorea-acanthocytosis carrying a VPS13A mutation present with focal, treatment-resistant seizures. PMID: 26813249 Defective chorein is accompanied by significant structural disorganization of all cytoskeletal structures. PMID: 26316086 VPS13A-depleted cells showed accumulation of autophagic markers and impaired autophagic flux PMID: 25996471 Chorein is expressed in various cancer cells. In cells with high chorein expression levels chorein silencing promotes apoptotic cell death, an effect paralleled by down-regulation of PI-3K activity and BCL-2/Bax expression ratio. PMID: 25871399 Discovery of new mutations may clarify the pathogenic roles of chorein in chorea-acanthocytosis as well as in the retina PMID: 23746940 chorein interacts with beta-adducin and beta-actin. PMID: 24129186 Data indicate functions of chorein, i.e., regulation of secretion and aggregation of blood platelets. PMID: 23568775 This study demonistrated that neuroacanthocytosis disorders has heterozygotes for mutations in the VPS13A gene. PMID: 22038564 Results reveal chorein as a novel powerful regulator of cytoskeletal architecture and cell survival, thus explaining erythrocyte misshape and possibly neurodegeneration in chorea-acanthocytosis. PMID: 22227296 these results suggest that chorein is involved in exocytosis of dense-core vesicles. PMID: 22366033 Frameshift mutations of VPS genes and losses of expression of Vps13A and Vps35 proteins are common in gastric cancers and colorectal cancers with high microsatellite instability. PMID: 21733561 identified 36 pathogenic mutations of VPS13A, 20 of which were previously unreported, including two novel copy number variations PMID: 21598378 A mutation was identified in the VPS13A gene, responsible for autosomal recessive chorea-acanthocytosis.

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.
