Recombinant Human His6-UFM1 Activating Enzyme (UBA5), CF Summary

Product Specifications

Purity
>95%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by Colloidal Coomassie® Blue stain
Activity
Recombinant Human His6-UFM1 Activating Enzyme (UBA5) is a member of the UFM1-activating (E1) enzyme family that is required for the first step of the enzymatic cascade that subsequently utilizes a UFM1-conjugating (E2) enzyme and a UFM1 ligase (E3) to conjugate UFM1 to substrate proteins. Reaction conditions will need to be optimized for each specific application. We recommend an initial Recombinant Human His6-UFM1 Activating Enzyme (UBA5) concentration of 50-200 nM.
Source
E. coli-derived human UFM1 Activating Enzyme/UBA5 protein
Contains an N-terminal 6-His tag
Accession #
Predicted Molecular Mass
47 kDa

Carrier Free

What does CF mean?

CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.

What formulation is right for me?

In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: UFM1 Activating Enzyme/UBA5

Ubiquitin-fold Modifier 1 (UFM1) Activating Enzyme, also known as Ubiquitin-like Modifier Activating Enzyme 5 (UBA5) and Ubiquitin-activating Enzyme E1 Domain-containing Protein 1 (UBE1DC1), is a 404 amino acid (aa) member of the Ubiquitin-activating (E1) enzyme family with a predicted molecular weight of 45 kDa (1). The mouse and rat UFM1 Activating Enzyme/UBA5 orthologs share 87% and 88% aa sequence identity with the human protein, respectively. UFM1 Activating Enzyme/UBA5 is highly conserved in plants and metazoans but not in yeast (2). In humans, it is expressed both as the full length protein and as a truncated isoform that lacks aa 1-56. It is widely expressed in human cells where it is localized to the cytoplasm and nucleus (1,3). UFM1 Activating Enzyme/UBA5 has a conserved ATP-binding motif in close proximity to an active site cysteine residue, Cys250 in humans, and a metal binding motif, both of which are common to most E1 enzymes (2). It is the activating enzyme for both UFM1 and SUMO2 (3). UFM1 Activating Enzyme/UBA5 is required for erythroid differentiation in mice (4).  This protein has an N-terminal His6 tag.
