| Endotoxin Level |
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method. |
| Expression System |
HEK293 |
| Theoretical Molecular Weight |
50 kDa |
| Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 65-70 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
| Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in 50mM MES, 150mM NaCl (pH 6.0). |
| Reconstitution |
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 50mM MES, 150mM NaCl (pH 6.0). |
| 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 |
Hemopexin (HPX) serves as scavenger and transporter of toxic plasma heme to the liver. HPX is formed by two four-bladed beta-propeller domains, resembling two thick disks that lock together at a 90 degrees angle. The heme is bound between the two beta-propeller domains in a pocket formed by the interdomain linker peptide.HPX, acting not only as a heme carrier but also displaying transient heme-based ligand binding and (pseudo-)enzymatic properties, could be considered a 'chronosteric' heme-protein. |
