Protein Wnt-7a (Wnt7a), mouse, recombinant

Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse). Source: E.coli. Expression Region: 32-349aa. Protein Length: Full Length of Mature Protein. Tag Info: N-terminal 10xHis-tagged and C-terminal Myc-tagged. Target Protein Sequence: LGASIICNKI PGLAPRQRAI CQSRPDAIIV IGEGSQMGLD ECQFQFRNGR WNCSALGERT VFGKELKVGS REAAFTYAII AAGVAHAITA ACTQGNLSDC GCDKEKQGQY HRDEGWKWGG CSADIRYGIG FAKVFVDARE IKQNARTLMN LHNNEAGRKI LEENMKLECK CHGVSGSCTT KTCWTTLPQF RELGYVLKDK YNEAVHVEPV RASRNKRPTF LKIKKPLSYR KPMDTDLVYI EKSPNYCEED PVTGSVGTQG RACNKTAPQA SGCDLMCCGR GYNTHQYARV WQCNCKFHWC CYVKCNTCSE RTEMYTCK. 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: Ligand for members of the frizzled family of seven transmembrane receptors that functions in the canonical Wnt/beta-catenin signaling pathway. Plays an important role in embryonic development, including dorsal versus ventral patterning during limb development, skeleton development and urogenital tract development. Required for central nervous system (CNS) angiogenesis and blood-brain barrier regulation. Required for normal, sexually dimorphic development of the Mullerian ducts, and for normal fertility in both sexes. Required for normal neural stem cell proliferation in the hippocampus dentate gyrus. Required for normal progress through the cell cycle in neural progenitor cells, for self-renewal of neural stem cells, and for normal neuronal differentiation and maturation. Promotes formation of synapses via its interaction with FZD5.
