Formulation |
Lyophilized from a 0.2um filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4. |
Solubility |
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized FABP1 in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
Purity |
Greater than 95.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
Description |
Fatty Acid Binding Protein-1 Recombinant Mouse produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 127 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 14.2kDa. The FABP1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
Protein Background |
FABP1 (Fatty acid binding protein1) encodes the fatty acid binding protein found in liver. FABP1 is composed of ten antiparallel beta strands that form a barrel with a bigger binding pocket than the other FABPs allowing it to accommodate two fatty acid. This protein binds free fatty acids and their coenzyme A derivatives, bilirubin, and some other small molecules in the cytoplasm; it may be involved in intracellular lipid transport and metabolism. |
Expression host |
Escherichia Coli. |
Synonyms |
Fatty acid-binding protein 1 liver, L-FABP, FABPL, FABP-1, FABP1, Z-protein. |
Reagent Appearance |
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
Stability |
Lyophilized FABP1 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution FABP1 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
