Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS, 2mM DTT (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 |
S100A8 and S100A9 (also known as MRP8 and MRP14, respectively) are Ca2 binding proteins belonging to the S100 family. They often exist in the form of heterodimer, while homodimer exists very little because of the stability. S100A8/A9 is constitutively expressed in neutrophils and monocytes as a Ca2 sensor, participating in cytoskeleton rearrangement and arachidonic acid metabolism. |
