Data sheet
| Formulation | The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution with 0.02-0.03% NaHCO3. |
| Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Placental Lactogen in sterile water or 0.4% NaHCO3 adjusted to pH 8-9, not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions, preferably in presence of carrier protein. |
| Purity | Greater than 99.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by Gel Filtration.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description | Placental Lactogen Human Recombinant, is a single polypeptide chain containing 199 amino acids and an additional Ala at the N-terminus having a molecular mass of approximately 22.4 kDa. Placental Lactogen Recombinant is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background | Placental Lactogen is a polypeptide hormone that is produced by the Syncytiotrophoblasts of the Placenta, also known as chorionic somatomammotropin. It has both Growth Hormone and Prolactin activities on growth, lactation, and luteal steroid production. In women, placental lactogen secretion begins soon after implantation and increases to 1 g or more a day in late pregnancy. Placental lactogen is also an insulin antagonist.Placental Lactogen Bovine is also capable of activating human and other heterologous GH receptors but not ruminat GH receptors. |
| Expression host | Escherichia Coli. |
| Synonyms | Chorionic Somatomammotropin Hormone 1, CSH1, Choriomammotropin, Lactogen, CSH2, PL, CSA, CSMT, FLJ75407. |
| Reagent Appearance | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
| Stability | Lyophilized Placental Lactogen Human Recombinant although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Placental Lactogen 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 | The sequence of the first six N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ala-Val-Gln-Thr-Val-Pro. |
| Biological Activity | Placental Lactogen Human is biologically active as evidenced by inducing proliferation of Nb2 cells. |
| Special Note | 1) Prepare 180ul assay buffer into a suitable container: The final concentrations are 11mM Tris-HCl (pH7.5), 55mM NaCl, 2.2mM DTT, 1.1mM MnCl2, 1.1mM EDTA and 33mM pNPP.2) Equilibrate to 37°C and monitor at A405nm until the value is constant using a spectrophotometer.3) Add 20ul of recombinant PTP-1B protein 12.5ug/ml in 0.1% BSA in DW.4) Record the increase in A405nm for 5minutes. |
