>95%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by Colloidal Coomassie® Blue stain.

Predicted Molecular Mass

42 kDa

Activity

Recombinant Human His6-Ataxin-3-Like protein is a Ubiquitin-specific deconjugating enzyme.  Reaction conditions will need to be optimized for each specific application.  We recommend an initial His6-Ataxin-3-like concentration of 10-100 nM when utilizing K63-linked tetra-Ubiquitin Rhodamine (UC-355).  Higher concentrations may be required for other substrates.

Shipping The product is shipped with dry ice or equivalent. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature recommended below.
Stability & Storage Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
  • 12 months from date of receipt, -70 °C as supplied.
  • 3 months, -70 °C under sterile conditions after opening.

Background: Ataxin-3 Like

Ataxin-3-Like protein, also known as Machado-Joseph Disease (MJD) Protein-1-Like, is a 355 amino acid deubiquitinating (DUB) enzyme with a predicted molecular weight of 41 kDa.  Full-length Ataxin-3-L contains an N-terminal Joesephin Domain, two Ubiquitin-Interacting-Motifs (UIM's) and a C-terminus consisting of a polyglutamine stretch and tail.  Ataxin-3-L targets include Kruppel-Like Factor 5 (KLF5).  KLF5 has been reported to promote breast cell proliferation, survival and tumorigenesis.  Ubiquitination and proteasome-mediated degradation of KLF5 is antagonized by Ataxin-3-L, suggesting that inhibition of this DUB might provide a target for therapeutic intervention in breast cancer.  Ataxin-3 and Ataxin-3-L have been reported to cleave both K48- and K63-linked poly-Ubiquitin in vitro, though enzyme activity in such assays is inefficient when using shorter chain lengths (≤ 6).  Ataxin-3-L activity can be efficiently monitored with K63-linked tetra-Ubiquitin Rhodamine (http://www.rndsystems.com/product_results.aspx?k=UC-355">UC-355) substrate.
