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
MKKS (McKusick-Kaufman syndrome) protein, also known as BBS6, is a member of the chaperonin family, which plays a critical role in protein folding and assembly within the cell. Research on MKKS has garnered attention due to its association with McKusick-Kaufman syndrome, a rare genetic disorder characterized by multiple congenital anomalies, including hydrometrocolpos, polysyndactyly, and obesity, as well as its implications in Bardet-Biedl syndrome, which involves obesity, retinal degeneration, and kidney abnormalities. The MKKS protein is localized in the cytoplasm, functioning as a molecular chaperone that assists in the proper folding of various protein substrates, particularly in facilitating the formation of functional cilia and flagella. Dysfunction in MKKS is implicated in the disruption of these cellular structures, leading to the phenotypic manifestations observed in related syndromes. Thus, exploring the structure, function, and pathological roles of MKKS protein is essential for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying these syndromes. This research not only provides insights into the fundamental biology of protein chaperones but also has potential implications for developing therapeutic strategies for managing the clinical features associated with MKKS and related disorders. Current studies focus on elucidating the interaction networks and cellular pathways influenced by MKKS, which may reveal novel targets for intervention and improve the understanding of ciliopathies and congenital syndromes linked to this protein.
