Name :
Recombinant Human KEAP1 Protein (His & GST Tag)
Biological Activity :
Background :
Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1, also known as a cytosolic inhibitor of Nrf2, Kelch-like protein 19, KEAP1, and INRF2, is a cytoplasm and nucleus protein that contains one BACK (BTB/Kelch associated) domain, one BTB (POZ) domain, and six Kelch repeats. KEAP1 / INRF2 is broadly expressed, with the highest levels in skeletal muscle. KEAP1 / INRF2 is a key regulator of the NRF2 transcription factor, which transactivates the antioxidant response element (ARE) and upregulates numerous proteins involved in antioxidant defense. Under basal conditions, KEAP1 / INRF2 targets NRF2 for ubiquitination and proteolytic degradation and as such is responsible for the rapid turnover of NRF2. KEAP1 / INRF2 retains NFE2L2 / NRF2 in the cytosol. KEAP1 / INRF2 functions as a substrate adapter protein for the E3 ubiquitin ligase complex formed by CUL3 and RBX1. It targets NFE2L2 / NRF2 for ubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome, thus resulting in the suppression of its transcriptional activity and the repression of antioxidant response element-mediated detoxifying enzyme gene expression. KEAP1 / INRF2 may also retain BPTF in the cytosol. It targets PGAM5 for ubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome.
