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
MIP4a, or Major Intrinsic Protein 4a, is a member of the aquaporin family of membrane proteins, primarily known for facilitating the transport of water and small solutes across cellular membranes. The study of MIP4a has gained significant attention due to its potential roles in various physiological processes and its implications in plant biology, particularly in stress responses, including drought and salinity tolerance. Understanding the structure and function of MIP4a can provide insights into its regulatory mechanisms, as well as its interactions with other cellular components. Research has indicated that MIP4a may also be involved in specific signaling pathways, influencing nutrient uptake and homeostasis. Furthermore, the recombinant expression of MIP4a in heterologous systems for biochemical and biophysical characterization is a focal point for interrogating its functionalities. By elucidating the mechanisms behind MIP4a's operation, scientists aim to develop strategies for improving crop resilience to environmental stresses and enhancing agricultural productivity. The exploration of MIP4a as a model system for protein engineering also opens avenues for biotechnological innovations in water management and nutrient delivery in plants. Thus, the ongoing research on MIP4a is expected to enrich our understanding of plant biology and contribute to developing sustainable agricultural practices amidst changing climate conditions.
