Alternative Names: Calnexin, Major histocompatibility complex class I antigen-binding protein p88, p90, IP90, CANX, CNX, FLJ26570.

Calnexin is a member of the calnexin family of molecular chaperones. It is an ER-associated protein that binds to calcium and interacts briefly with newly synthesized N-linked glycoproteins. This interaction helps with protein folding and assembly. Additionally, Calnexin plays a vital role in quality control by retaining incorrectly folded protein subunits in the ER for degradation. Calnexin also provides long-term protection for the wild-type Shaker protein from degradation in the ER. The recognition of polypeptide substrates by Calnexin depends on specific conformations of the protein. Calnexin levels decrease with age and may play a role in the protection against various age-related diseases in humans.

Product Details

Product Description

Recombinant Human Calnexin, a member of the lectin chaperone family, is a protein involved in the quality control of glycoprotein folding within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). With a molecular weight of approximately 90 kDa, this protein plays a significant role in maintaining cellular homeostasis by assisting in the proper folding, assembly, and maturation of glycoproteins. Its function as a chaperone ensures the correct conformation of glycoproteins, preventing their premature degradation and facilitating their transport to the Golgi apparatus for further processing. Recombinant Human Calnexin is widely utilized in research and biotechnological applications to study protein folding, ER stress response, and glycoprotein-related diseases.

Storage Instruction

Reconstituted store at -20°C or -80°C.We recommend that single use aliquots are prepared to avoid freeze-thaw cycles.

Sample Prep Instruction

1. Thaw the vial on ice, spin briefly
2. Prepare single-use or stock aliquots. This stage will depend on your final application so please adapt as appropriate. All our proteins are supplied carrier protein-free. If compatible with your work and you are storing at lower concentrations (<50 ug/ml) adding carrier protein is highly advised (usually 1% w/v high purity BSA or equivalent – ensure all buffers are sterile-filtered).
3. Prepare single-use aliquots whenever possible to avoid freeze-thaw cycles which can damage the proteins and reduce bioactivity. Store aliquots at -70 °C (or -20 °C)
4. We recommend sterile filtering after dilution in media or the final working solution
