ERO1-like protein alpha (ERO1L) is an essential oxidoreductase, which oxidizes proteins and is necessary for the folding of immunoglobulins. ERO1L covalently binds with PDI (protein disulfide-isomerase) and jointly they generate disulfide bonds between proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. ERO1L is stimulated by hypoxia, proposing that ERO1L is regulated through the HIF (hypoxia inducible transcrip-tion factor) pathway. At low levels ERO1L is ubiquitously expressed, however at high levels it is expressed in the upper digestive tract and esophagus. In addition, ERO1L is involved in the release of the unfolded cholera toxin from reduced P4HB/PDI in case of infection by V.cholerae, thus having a role in retrotranslocation of the toxin. Furthermore, ERO1L plays an important role in ER stress-induced, CHOP-dependent apoptosis by activating the inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptor IP3R1.

ERO1L Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 468 amino acids (24-468) and having a molecular mass of 54.4 kDa.
ERO1L is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
