sequence :
The target protein is fused with N-terminal His-Tag, its sequence is listed below. MGHHHHHHSGSEF-TITILKDF SILLMEGVPK SLNYSGVKEL ILAVDGVLSV HSLHIWSLTM NQVILSAHVA TAASRDSQVV RREIAKALSK SFTMHSLTIQ MESPVDQDPD CLFCEDPCD
form :
20mM Tris, 150mM NaCl, pH8.0, containing 1mM EDTA, 1mM DTT, 0.01% sarcosyl, 5%Trehalose and Proclin300.
storage stability :
Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Store at 2-8 degree C for one month. Aliquot and store at -80 degree C for 12 months. Stability Test: The thermal stability is described by the loss rate of the targetprotein. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test,that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation andprecipitation were observed. (Referring from China Biological Products Standard,which was calculated by the Arrhenius equation.) The loss of this protein is lessthan 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a zinc efflux transporter involved in the accumulation of zinc in intracellular vesicles. This gene is expressed at a high level only in the pancreas, particularly in islets of Langerhans. The encoded protein colocalizes with insulin in the secretory pathway granules of the insulin-secreting INS-1 cells. Allelic variants of this gene exist that confer susceptibility to diabetes mellitus, noninsulin-dependent (NIDDM). Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.[provided by RefSeq, Mar 2010]
uniprot summary :
SLC30A8: Facilitates the accumulation of zinc from the cytoplasm into intracellular vesicles, being a zinc-efflux transporter. May be a major component for providing zinc to insulin maturation and/or storage processes in insulin-secreting pancreatic beta- cells. Belongs to the cation diffusion facilitator (CDF) transporter (TC 2.A.4) family. SLC30A subfamily. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Transporter; Membrane protein, integral; Vesicle; Membrane protein, multi-pass; Transporter, SLC family. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 8q24.11. Cellular Component: Golgi apparatus; secretory granule membrane; cytoplasmic membrane-bound vesicle; plasma membrane; integral to membrane; secretory granule. Molecular Function: protein homodimerization activity; zinc ion binding; zinc ion transmembrane transporter activity. Biological Process: sequestering of zinc ion; cellular protein metabolic process; insulin secretion; cellular zinc ion homeostasis; response to glucose stimulus; positive regulation of insulin secretion; zinc ion transport; glucose homeostasis; transmembrane transport. Disease: Diabetes Mellitus, Noninsulin-dependent
