Merck, 14-930, IRE1, active

General description
Product Source: N-terminal 6His-tagged, recombinant, human IRE1 amino acids 465-end expressed by baculovirus in Sf21 insect cells.
Senses unfolded proteins in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum via its N-terminal domain which leads to enzyme auto-activation. The active endoribonuclease domain splices XBP1 mRNA to generate a new C-terminus, converting it into a potent unfolded-protein response transcriptional activator and triggering growth arrest and apoptosis.
