SH3GL2, 1-352aa, Human, His tag, E.coli

SH3GL2 (SH3-domain GRB2-like 2), also known as endophilin-A1, belongs to the endophilin family. It contains a BAR domain and a SH3 domain. Members of the BAR domain protein superfamily are essential elements of cellular traffic. Endophilins are among the best studied BAR domain proteins. They have a prominent function in synaptic vesicle endocytosis (SVE), receptor trafficking and apoptosis, and in other processes that require remodeling of the membrane structure. SH3GL2 a novel tumor suppressor gene in laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC), induces apoptosis of tumor cells by regulating intra-cellular signal transduction networks. Recombinant human SH3GL2 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
