• Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20℃/-80℃. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.
• Shelf Life: The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself.; Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.
• Notes: Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4°C for up to one week.

The catalytic subunit of 1,3-beta-glucan synthase plays a key role in synthesizing 1,3-beta-glucan, a crucial structural element of the fungal cell wall. This enzyme is essential for the formation, upkeep, and remodeling of the cell wall, contributing to the integrity and function of the fungal cell. By facilitating the production of 1,3-beta-glucan, it helps maintain the structural stability required for the cell’s survival and adaptability. Through its involvement in these processes, the catalytic subunit supports cellular growth and defense mechanisms, making it a critical component in fungal biology.
