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
GroEL is a crucial chaperonin protein found in bacteria, playing a vital role in the proper folding of other proteins, especially those that are large or misfolded. It forms a cylindrical structure that provides a controlled environment for polypeptide chains to fold correctly, thus preventing aggregation and ensuring protein functionality. Despite its well-established function in prokaryotes, the applications of GroEL, particularly in the context of recombinant protein production, have become increasingly relevant in biotechnology and pharmaceuticals. Researchers aim to leverage GroEL's chaperoning abilities to enhance the folding efficiency of heterologous proteins expressed in bacterial systems. This is particularly important when dealing with complex or unstable proteins that may aggregate during the folding process. Significant advances in genetic engineering and expression systems have allowed for the optimization of GroEL's functionality, improving protein yields and activity. Furthermore, studies involving GroEL not only provide insights into the fundamental mechanisms of molecular chaperones but also pave the way for developing therapeutic proteins with enhanced stability and efficacy. The exploration of GroEL’s interactions with different substrates and its integration into high-throughput screening methods represents an important frontier in protein science, with implications for drug development, vaccine production, and enzyme engineering. As research progresses, the potential of GroEL as a versatile tool in recombinant protein technology continues to expand, highlighting its importance in both basic research and practical applications in the life sciences.
