Recombinant cytomegalovirus Pp28 (UL99)

Source : Escherichia Coli. The E.Coli derived recombinant protein contains the CMV Pp28 (UL99) immunodominant regions, 130-160 amino acids. The human cytomegalovirus UL99-encoded pp28 is a myristylated phosphoprotein that is a constituent of the virion. The pp28 protein is positioned within the tegument of the virus particle, a protein structure that resides between the capsid and envelope. In the infected cell, pp28 is found in a cytoplasmic compartment derived from the Golgi apparatus, where the virus buds into vesicles to acquire its final membrane.

CMV Pp28 protein is >95% pure as determined by 10% PAGE (coomassie staining) .

25mM Tris-Hcl pH 7.2, 1mM EDTA and 50% glycerol.

CMV Pp28 protein although stable at 4°C for 1 week, should be stored below -18°C. Please prevent freeze thaw cycles.
