VP4 (Rotavirus A)

Source

Rotavirus A (strain RVA/Human/United States/Wa/1974/G1P1A[8]) VP4 Protein, His Tag (VP4-R5243) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Gly 26 - Asn 476 (Accession # P11193).

Predicted N-terminus: His

Molecular Characterization

This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the N-terminus.

The protein has a calculated MW of 52.9 kDa. The protein migrates as 65-85 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

The protein is designed as a dimer.

Endotoxin

Less than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method / rFC method.

Purity

>90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

>90% as determined by SEC-MALS.

Formulation

Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant.

Background Introduction

Rotavirus is the leading cause of severe, watery diarrhea in infants and children less than 5 years old. It is estimated that around three-quarters of infants and children had rotavirus diarrhea before the age of 12 months and over millions of them were hospitalized due to the rotavirus infection. The rotavirus has various structural viral protein (VPs) and non-structural protein (NSPs), among them, the VP4 and VP7 together determines the serotypes of the virus, with the VP4 determines the P-type and VP-7 determines the G-type. The reassortment of these proteins leads to the diversity of the rotavirus strains, making the VP4 and VP7 the important target for vaccine studies.
