Description |
Recombinant Human Syntaxin-8/STX8 is produced with our E. coli expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Met1-Gly215) of Human STX8. |
Names |
Syntaxin-8, STX8 |
Accession # |
Q9UNK0 |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS,pH 7.4 |
Shipping |
The product is shipped at ambient temperature. |
Reconstitution |
Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/ml.
Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 1X PBS.
Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. |
Storage |
Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks.
Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days.
Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months. |
Purity |
Greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC and reducing SDS-PAGE. |
Endotoxin |
Less than 0.1 ng/µg (1 IEU/µg). |

Background |
Syntaxin-8 is a single-pass type IV membrane protein which belongs to the syntaxin family. It contains one t-SNARE coil homology domain. STX8 is highly expressed in heart, also found in brain, kidney, liver, lung, placenta, skeletal muscle, spleen and pancreas. STX8 is involved in protein trafficking from early to late endosomes via vesicle fusion and exocytosis. It as a vesicle trafficking protein functions in the early secretory pathway, possibly mediating retrograde transport form cis-golgi membrane to the ER. |
