His |
| N-term |
C-term |
|
| Purity |
> 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 |
53.38 kDa |
| Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 85-105 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 |
MER tyrosine kinase (MERTK) encodes a surface receptor localized at the apical membrane of the retinal pigment epithelium. It plays a critical role in photoreceptor outer segment internalization prior to phagocytosis. Mutations in MERTK have been associated with severe autosomal recessive retinal dystrophies in the RCS rat and in humans. |
| Synonyms |
