Purity: > 90% by SDS - PAGE Format: Liquid. In 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0) containing 0.15M NaCl, 10% glycerol, 1mM DTT . IMPACT belongs to the IMPACT family and contains 1 RWD domain. This protein is translational regulator that ensures constant high levels of translation under amino acid starvation and acts by interacting with GCN1/GCN1L1, thereby preventing activation of GCN2 protein kinases (EIF2AK1 to 4) and subsequent down-regulation of protein synthesis. Recombinant human IMPACT protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
