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℃ for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate isless than 8% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
-
Storage & Shelf Life
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
-
Shipping
In general, recombinant proteins are supplied as lyophilized powder and shipped at ambient temperature. For bulk packages, the proteins are provided as frozen liquid and shipped with blue ice, unless otherwise requested by the customer.

Protein Description
crtX, a gene encoding a recombinant protein, has gained attention in the context of microbial physiology and biotechnology due to its role in the carotenoid biosynthetic pathway. Carotenoids are important pigments that not only contribute to the coloration of various organisms but also play a crucial role in photoprotection and antioxidant activity. The exploration of crtX is pertinent as it is involved in the enzymatic conversion of precursors into carotenoid compounds, which are vital for the survival and adaptability of certain microorganisms under stress conditions. Research on crtX has implications for agricultural practices, as carotenoids have been shown to enhance the nutritional value of crops and improve their resistance to environmental stresses. Furthermore, understanding crtX function can lead to advances in metabolic engineering, allowing for the optimization of carotenoid production in microbial systems for commercial applications. By elucidating the mechanisms of crtX, scientists aim to harness its potential for developing biofortified crops and producing valuable carotenoid compounds in a sustainable manner, contributing to food security and health benefits. The study of crtX recombinant protein thus sits at the intersection of microbiology, genetics, and agricultural science, opening avenues for innovative biotechnological solutions.
