CPEB1,1-561aa, Human, His tag, E.coli

CPEB1 is a member of the cytoplasmic polyadenylation element (CPE) binding protein family. This highly conserved protein binds to a specific RNA sequence called the CPE found in the 3' UTR of some mRNAs. Similar proteins in Xenopus and mouse function to induce cytoplasmic polyadenylation of dormant mRNAs with short polyA tails, resulting in their translation. Members of this protein family regulate translation of cyclin B1 during embryonic cell divisions. Recombinant human CPEB1 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli.
