ERp57, also known as Glucose Regulated Protein 58 (Grp58), Hormone-Induced Protein-70 (HIP-70) and microsomal Carnitine Palmitoyltransferase, is a member of the protein disulfide isomerase family, containing two canonical CXHC tetrapeptide active site motifs (1-5). It has quite a few diverse roles. It functions as an accessory oxidoreductase involved in disulfide bond formation. In the ER, ERp57 interacts with membrane bound calnexin and soluble calreticulin \n(lectin chaperones) via their proline rich P-domain arms. Lectin chaperones bind nascent non-native glycoproteins, and position ERp57 to act upon the immature or misfolded glycoproteins that possess mono-glucosylated side chains. ERp57 deletion impairs \nposttranslational phases of influenza hema-glutinin folding, and causes accelerated release of MHC-I molecules, resulting in the coupling of sub-optimal peptides and reduced expression and stability on the cell surface (6). ERp57 also contains two thioredoxin active-site sequences, CGHC and an estrogen-binding domain. ERp57 is induced by both estrogen and \nleuteinizing-hormone-releasing hormone in the hippocampus (7). \n\nApplications: \nSuitable for use in Western Blot, Immunoprecipitation and Immunohistochemistry. Other applications not tested.\n\nRecommended Dilution:\nWestern Blot: 1:2000\nOptimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.\n\nStorage and Stability:\nMay be stored at 4 degrees C for short-term only. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20 degrees C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months at -20 degrees C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
