INTRODUCTION
Calumenin is a calcium-binding protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) of mammalian tissues which plays a role in ER functions as protein folding and sorting. Calumenin belongs to a family of multiple EF-hand proteins (CERC) that include reticulocalbin, ERC-55, and Cab45 and the product of this gene. Calumenin binds 7 calcium ions having low affinity and takes part in such ER functions as protein folding and sorting.
DESCRIPTION
Recombinant Human Calumenin produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 317 amino acids (20-315 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 37.2 kDa. Calumenin is fused to a 20 amino acid His Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
