Lactadherin (Mfge8), rat, recombinant

Organism: Rattus norvegicus (Rat). Source: E.coli. Expression Region: 23-427aa. Protein Length: Full Length of Mature Protein. Tag Info: N-terminal 6xHis-tagged. Target Protein Sequence: ASGDFCDSSL CLNGGTCLMG QDNDIYCLCP EGFTGLVCNE TEKGPCSPNP CFHDAKCLVT EDTQRGDIFT EYICQCPVGY SGIHCELGCS TKLGLEGGAI ADSQISASSV YMGFMGLQRW GPELARLYRT GIVNAWTASS YDSKPWIQVD FLRKMRVSGV MTQGASRAGR AEYLKTFKVA YSLDGRRFEF IQDESGTGDK EFMGNQDNNS LKINMFNPTL EAQYIRLYPV SCHRGCTLRF ELLGCELHGC SEPLGLKNNT IPDSQITASS SYKTWNLRAF GWYPHLGRLD NQGKINAWTA QSNSAKEWLQ VDLGTQKKVT GIITQGARDF GHIQYVASYK VAHSDDGVQW TVYEEQGTSK VFQGNLDNNS HKKNIFEKPF MARYVRVLPL SWHNRITLRL ELLGC. Purity: Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Endotoxin: Not test. Biological Activity: n/a. Form: Liquid or Lyophilized powder. Buffer: If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0. 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 °C/-80 °C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference. Storage: 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. Relevance: Contributes to phagocytic removal of apoptotic cells in many tissues. Plays an important role in the maintenance of intestinal epithelial homeostasis and the promotion of mucosal healing. Promotes VEGF-dependent neovascularization. Specific ligand for the alpha-v/beta-3 and alpha-v/beta-5 receptors. Also binds to phosphatidylserine-enriched cell surfaces in a receptor-independent manner. Zona pellucida-binding protein which may play a role in gamete interaction. Appears to participate in the O-acetylation of GD3 ganglioside sialic acid.
