Growth Hormone Human Recombinant, HEK ( GH Human, HEK )

Data sheet

Formulation

The GH was lyophilized from 1mg/ml in 1xPBS.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized GH in sterile 1xPBS containing 0.1% endotoxin-free recombinant HSA.

Purity

Greater than 95% as obsereved by SDS-PAGE.

Description

Growth Hormone Human Recombinant produced in HEK cells is a non-glycosylated monomer, having a total molecular weight of 22kDa.The GH is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Protein Background

GH is a member of the somatotropin/prolactin family of hormones which play an important role in growth control. The gene, along with four other related genes, is located at the growth hormone locus on chromosome 17 where they are interspersed in the same

Expression host

HEK.

Synonyms

GH1, GH, GHN, GH-N, hGH-N,Pituitary growth hormone, Growth hormone 1, Somatotropin.

Stability

Lyophilized GH although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution GH 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 carrie

Physical Appearence

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Biological Activity

The activity was determined by the dose dependent stimulation of the proliferation of rat lymphoma line Nb2-11 cells (prolactin indicator cell line), the ED50 is 2ng/ml.
