Protein Construction |
EPO/Erythropoietin (Ala28-Arg193) Accession # AAH93628.1 |
|
Purity |
> 95% as determined by BisTris PAGE > 95% as determined by HPLC |
Endotoxin Level |
Less than 0.1EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Biological Activity |
Measured in a cell proliferation assay using TF‑1 human erythroleukemic cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.4 ‑ 1ng/mL. Test result was comparable to standard batch. |
Expression System |
HEK293 |
Theoretical Molecular Weight |
18.39 kDa |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 35-45 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). |
Reconstitution |
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. |
Storage & Stability |
Upon receiving, the product remains stable up to 6 months at -20 °C or below. Upon reconstitution, the product should be stable for 3 months at -80 °C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
Target Background |
Erythropoietin (EPO) is a circulating hormone conventionally considered to be responsible for erythropoiesis. In addition to facilitating red blood cell production, EPO has pluripotent potential, such as for cognition improvement, neurogenesis, and anti-fibrotic, anti-apoptotic, anti-oxidative, and anti-inflammatory effects. |
