E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase RNF34L, also named CARP2 (Caspases-8/10 Associated RING protein 2), acts as RING?domain E3 ligases, ubiquitinates apical caspases and targets them for proteasome-mediated degradation. CARP gene silencing inhibits tumor cell survival and increases cancer cell sensitivity to the death ligand or chemotherapy-induced apoptosis. CARP proteins target the tumor suppressor p53 for degradation. RNF34L also acts at the level of endocytic vesicles to limit the intensity of TNF-induced NF-kappaB activation by the regulated elimination of the adaptor protein RIP1.

Product Notes
The RNF34L (Catalog #AAA517557) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Sf9 insect cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. AAA Biotech's RNF34L (CARP2) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Ubiquitin Enzyme Assay, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the RNF34L for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "RNF34L (CARP2), Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
