Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-5 Mouse Recombinant ( CCL12 ) ( MCP 5 Mouse )

Data sheet

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2um filtered concentrated solution in 1PBS, pH 7.4.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized MCP5 in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Purity

Greater than 97.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

Description

MCP-5 Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 82 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 9.3kDa. The MCP5 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Protein Background

MCP-5 (CCL12) is a cloned mouse CC chemokine most closely related to human MCP1 (66% amino acid sequence identity in the mature protein). MCP5 is expressed constitutively in the thymus and the lymph nodes. Under inflammatory conditions, moreover CCL12 exp

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms

C-C motif chemokine 12, MCP-1-related chemokine, Monocyte chemoattractant protein 5, Monocyte chemotactic protein 5, MCP-5, Small-inducible cytokine A12, Ccl12, Mcp5, Scya12.

Reagent Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Stability

Lyophilized CCL12 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution MCP5 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
