Protein Length | Full Length of Mature Protein |
Mol. Weight | 28.2 kDa |
Research Area | Signal Transduction |
Form | Liquid or Lyophilized powder |
Buffer | Liquid form: default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. Lyophilized powder form: the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0. |
Reconstitution | Briefly centrifuged the vial prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. It is recommended to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. The default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. |
Storage | 1. Store at -20°C/-80°C upon receipt, aliquoting is necessary for mutiple use. 2. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. 3. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week. 4. In general, protein in liquid form is stable for up to 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. Protein in lyophilized powder form is stable for up to 12 months at -20°C/-80°C. |
Notes | Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week. |
Target Details
Target Function | Acts as a peptide hormone recognized by receptors (e.g. RGI1 and RGI2) to trigger signaling events including the regulation of RITF1 expression and leading to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in roots to modulate meristem size. Signaling peptide (root growth factor) that maintains the postembryonic root stem cell niche in a PIN2-traffic dependent manner by regulating the expression levels and patterns of the transcription factor PLETHORA (PLT), mainly at the post-transcriptional level. Maintains the postembryonic root stem cell niche by regulating the expression levels and patterns of the transcription factor PLETHORA (e.g. PLT1 and PLT2), mainly at the post-transcriptional level. Influences circumferential cell number in the root meristem in response to Pi-deprivation. Regulates the pattern of root growth and lateral root development by modulating the length and the number of cortical cells in the root apical meristem (RAM), and the anticlinal asymmetric cell divisions in lateral root initiation cells. |
