INHBC Human

Data sheet

Formulation

The INHBC solution (0.5mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 0.15M NaCl, 1mM DTT and 10% glycerol.

Purity

Greater than 85% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Inactivation

Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 2.45 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of

Description

INHBC Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 139 amino acids (237-352) and having a molecular mass of 14.9kDa.INHBC is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chroma

Protein Background

INHBC, the beta C chain of inhibin, belongs to the TGF-beta superfamily. INHBC formulates heterodimers with beta A and beta B subunits. Other members of the TGF-beta superfamily are Activins and Inhibins, hormones with contradictory roles which take part

Expression host

E.coli.

Synonyms

Inhibin Beta C, Activin Beta-C Chain, IHBC, Inhibin Beta C Chain.

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.
