PRNP (Lys23-Ser230)_x000D_ Accession # P04156 |
hFc |
N-term |
C-term |
|
Purity |
> 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE |
Endotoxin Level |
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Biological Activity |
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized PRNP hFc Chimera, Human at 1μg/ml (100μl/well) on the plate can bind Biotinylated AntiPRNP Antibody, hFc Tag. Test result was comparable to standard batch. |
Expression System |
HEK293 |
Theoretical Molecular Weight |
49.4 kDa |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 60-67 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 |
Prion protein gene (PRNP) variants determine the susceptibility of humans, sheep and mice to prion diseases, whereas polymorphisms in the open reading frame (ORF) of bovine PRNP seem to be unrelated to the incidence of bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE). According to the latest reports, the genetic susceptibility of cattle to BSE is associated with polymorphisms ofthe regulatory region of the PRNP gene and the level ofits expression. |
