Beta Defensin-1 Mouse Recombinant ( BD 1 Mouse )

Data sheet

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2um filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH7.4.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Mouse BD-1 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

BD 1 Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 37 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 4.1 KDa.The BD 1 Mouse is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Protein Background

The Defensin family are highly similar in their protein sequence and are microbicidal & cytotoxic peptides made by neutrophils. Beta Defensin-1 is an antimicrobial peptide having the resistance of epithelial surfaces to microbial colonization. Beta Defens

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.
