Antigen-specific Affinity Chromatography
form :
Supplied as solution form in 0.01M PBS, pH7.4, containing 0.05% Proclin-300, 50% glycerol
storage stability :
Storage: Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Store at 4 degree C for frequent use. Aliquot and store at -20 degree C for 12 months. Stability Test: The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. 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 and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.

ncbi summary :
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the superfamily of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters. ABC proteins transport various molecules across extra- and intra-cellular membranes. ABC genes are divided into seven distinct subfamilies (ABC1, MDR/TAP, MRP, ALD, OABP, GCN20, White). This protein is a member of the White subfamily, and functions as a half-transporter to limit intestinal absorption and promote biliary excretion of sterols. Disruption of this gene in mice results in thrombocytopenia, prolonged bleeding times, anemia, leukopenia, infertility, shortened life span and cardiomyopathy. Mice lacking this gene show symptoms of sitosterolemia. [provided by RefSeq, Nov 2015]
uniprot summary :
ABCG5: Transporter that appears to play an indispensable role in the selective transport of the dietary cholesterol in and out of the enterocytes and in the selective sterol excretion by the liver into bile. Defects in ABCG5 are a cause of sitosterolemia (STSL); also known as phytosterolemia or shellfish sterolemia. It is a rare autosomal recessive disorder characterized by increased intestinal absorption of all sterols including cholesterol, plant and shellfish sterols, and decreased biliary excretion of dietary sterols into bile. Sitosterolemia patients have hypercholesterolemia, very high levels of plant sterols in the plasma, and frequently develop tendon and tuberous xanthomas, accelerated atherosclerosis and premature coronary artery disease. Belongs to the ABC transporter superfamily. ABCG family. Eye pigment precursor importer (TC 3.A.1.204) subfamily. Protein type: Membrane protein, integral; Membrane protein, multi-pass; Transporter; Transporter, ABC family. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 17 E4 17 55.02 cM.
