L1, Recombinant, Human, aa358-533, His-Tag (Papillomavirus Type 18 L1 Protein)
Description
Purity ~90% (SDS-PAGE). Forms an icosahedral capsid with a T=7 symmetry and about 55 nm diameter. The capsid is composed of 72 pentamers linked to each other by disulfide bonds and associated with L2 proteins. The capsid encapsulates the genomic DNA, but does not bind DNA. Essential for the initial attachment to the host cell. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to aa358-533 from human Papillomavirus Type 18 L1 Protein, fused to His-Tag at N-terminal, expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~24.1kD AA
