Target Details

Target Function sGP seems to possess an anti-inflammatory activity as it can reverse the barrier-decreasing effects of TNF alpha. Might therefore contribute to the lack of inflammatory reaction seen during infection in spite the of extensive necrosis and massive virus production. Does not seem to be involved in activation of primary macrophages. Does not seem to interact specifically with neutrophils.; Viroporin that permeabilizes mammalian cell plasma membranes. It acts by altering permeation of ionic compounds and small molecules. This activity may lead to viral enterotoxic activity.
Subcellular Location [Small/secreted glycoprotein]: Secreted.; [Delta-peptide]: Secreted.
Protein Families Filoviruses glycoprotein family

  6. Study determined the crystal structure of the primed GP (GPcl) of Ebola virus bound to domain C of NPC1 (NPC1-C); NPC1-C utilizes two protruding loops to engage a hydrophobic cavity on head of GPcl. Upon enzymatic cleavage and NPC1-C binding, conformational change in the GPcl further affects the state of the internal fusion loop, triggering membrane fusion. PMID: 26771495
  7. GP1,2 expression levels have a profound effect on factors that contribute to virus fitness and RNA editing may be an important mechanism employed by EBOV to regulate GP1,2 expression in order to optimize virus production and infectivity. PMID: 25392212

  11. findings demonstrate that a GP mutant, GP-F88A, defective for entry into a variety of human cell types, including antigen-presenting cells (APCs) can mediate viral entry into mouse CD11b( ) APCs; studies suggest an important role for NPC1 in the differential entry of GP-F88A into mouse versus human APCs PMID: 23302883
  12. Purified human NPC1 binds only to a cleaved form of Ebola virus spike glycoprotein that is generated within cells during entry, and only viruses containing cleaved glycoprotein can utilize a receptor retargeted to the cell surface. PMID: 22395071
  13. Ebola virus GP forms a tandem beta-hairpin structure that binds deeply into a cleft in the antibody-combining site. PMID: 22171276

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.
