> 95% as determined by BisTris PAGE > 95% as determined by HPLC |
Endotoxin Level |
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Expression System |
HEK293 |
Theoretical Molecular Weight |
47 kDa |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 60-68 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 |
Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disease characterized by a progressive decline in cognitive performance; Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) is instead an objective decline in cognitive performance that does not reach pathology. Paired immunoglobulin-like type 2 receptor alpha (PILRA) is a cell surface inhibitory receptor that was recently suggested to be involved in AD pathogenesis. In particular, the arginine-to-glycine substitution in position 78 (R78, rs1859788) was shown to be protective against AD. |
