Data sheet
| Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2um filtered concentrated solution in 1PBS, pH 7.4. |
| Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized BTC Mouse Recombinant in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
| Purity | Greater than 95.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description | BTC Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 80 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 9.0kDa. The BTC is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background | BTC is a potent mitogen for retinal pigment epithelial cells and vascular smooth muscle cells. The effects of betacellulin are probably mediated by the egf receptor and other related receptors. |
| Expression host | Escherichia Coli. |
| Synonyms | Betacellulin, Probetacellulin. |
| Reagent Appearance | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
| Stability | Lyophilized BTC although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution BTC should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Amino acid sequence | DGNTTRTPET NGSLCGAPGE NCTGTTPRQK VKTHFSRCPK QYKHYCIHGR CRFVVDEQTP SCICEKGYFG ARCERVDLFY |
| Biological Activity | Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 was determined by the dose-dependent stimulation of the proliferation of mouse Balb/3T3 cells is 1.0108 IU/mg. |
