| Description |
Adipsin Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 249 amino acids (26-253 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 26.6kDa.Adipsin is fused to a 21 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus. |
| Protein Background |
Complement Factor D (Adipsin), which belongs to the trypsin family of peptidases, is involved in the alternative complement pathway of the complement system where it cleaves factor B. In the alternative complement pathway, Adipsin is best known for its role in humoral suppression of infectious agents. In addition, Adipsin is a serine protease which is secreted by adipocytes into the bloodstream. Ultimately, Adipsin has a high level of expression in fat, proposing a role for adipose tissue in immune system biology. |
| Expression host |
Escherichia Coli. |
| Synonyms |
Complement factor D, EC 3.4.21.46, Adipsin, C3 convertase activator, Properdin factor D, CFD, DF, PFD, ADN. |
| Reagent Appearance |
Sterile Filtered colorless solution. |
| Stability |
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. |
