Description

Crl1 Protein from Candida Albicans is a purified recombinant protein derived from the opportunistic fungal pathogen *Candida albicans*. This protein is a critical reagent for researchers and developers focused on understanding fungal pathogenesis, host-pathogen interactions, and developing novel diagnostics and therapeutic strategies. It is essential for applications in microbiology, immunology, and antifungal drug discovery, serving the needs of pharmaceutical R&D, academic research institutions, and diagnostic kit manufacturers.

Application

• Antigen for Immunoassay Development: Used as a coating or detection antigen in ELISA, Western Blot, and lateral flow assays for the detection of anti-*Candida* antibodies.
• Biomarker Research: Investigation of Crl1's role as a potential biomarker for invasive candidiasis and other fungal infections.
• Vaccine Research & Development: Evaluation as a candidate antigen for subunit or recombinant vaccine development against *Candida albicans*.
• Drug Discovery & Screening: Target protein for high-throughput screening (HTS) assays to identify novel antifungal compounds that inhibit its function.
• Structural & Functional Studies: Used in X-ray crystallography, NMR, and binding studies to elucidate protein structure and interaction mechanisms.
• Cell Biology & Immunology: Study of fungal adhesion, biofilm formation, and modulation of host immune responses.

Quality Control

Our Crl1 Protein is produced under stringent conditions to ensure high purity, consistency, and biological activity. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including SDS-PAGE, HPLC, and endotoxin level analysis, to meet exacting research-grade standards. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, concentration, buffer composition, and functional data is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and support your experimental reproducibility.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. For long-term stability, store at -20°C or below in aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. The product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); ensure the container is sealed tightly after each use. Handle under appropriate laboratory conditions.
