Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-1 beta Mouse Recombinant ( CCL4 ) ( MIP 1b Mouse )

Data sheet

Formulation

Lyophilized from a concentrated (1 mg/ml) solution in water containing no additives.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Mouse MIP-1b in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Purity

Greater than 98.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

Description

Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-1 beta Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 69 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 7808 Dalton. The MIP-1b is purified by proprietary chromatographic techni

Protein Background

Macrophage Inflammatory Proteins (MIP) belong to the family of chemotactic cytokines known as chemokines. In humans, there are two major forms, MIP-1? and MIP-1? that are now officially named CCL3 and CCL4 respectively. Both are major factors produced by

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.
