TFEB protein, Human (N-His)

TFEB protein is a transcription factor that subtly regulates lysosomal function, autophagy, lipid catabolism, energy metabolism, and immune responses. It recognizes E-box and CLEAR-box sequences and controls gene expression based on nutrient availability. TFEB protein, Human (N-His) is the recombinant human-derived TFEB protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-10*His labeled tag. The total length of TFEB protein, Human (N-His) is 476 a.a., with molecular weight of ~57.0 kDa.

TFEB protein operates as a key transcription factor orchestrating diverse cellular processes, including lysosomal biogenesis, autophagy, lysosomal exocytosis, lipid catabolism, energy metabolism, and immune response. Recognizing E-box sequences, TFEB's efficient DNA-binding necessitates dimerization with itself or other MiT/TFE family members like TFE3 or MITF. It responds to amino acid availability through MTOR-mediated phosphorylation, promoting cytosolic retention and inactivation. Conversely, MTOR inhibition during starvation or lysosomal stress induces TFEB dephosphorylation, leading to nuclear localization and transcriptional activation. TFEB specifically binds CLEAR-box sequences, activating the expression of lysosomal genes and regulating lysosomal positioning. Additionally, it positively regulates autophagy, contributes to T-cell-dependent antibody responses, and plays a role in vascularization of the placenta. In response to bacterial infection, TFEB mediates itaconate-induced alkylation, activating lysosomal biogenesis and aiding in bacterial clearance. Notably, the eltrombopag drug inhibits TFEB by binding to the bHLH domain and disrupting DNA-binding.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
