| Formulation |
RAMP3 protein solution (0.5mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH8.0), 10% glycerol and 0.1M NaCl. |
| Purity |
Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Inactivation |
Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods:1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.52 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics). 2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a standard solution of Stem Cell Factor as a Reference Standard. |
| Description |
RAMP3 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 116 amino acids (24-118 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 13kDa. RAMP3 is fused to a 21 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background |
Receptor activity modifying protein 3 (RAMP3) belongs to the RAMP family of single-transmembrane-domain proteins, named receptor (calcitonin) activity modifying proteins (RAMPs). RAMP3 is needed to transport calcitonin-receptor-like receptor (CRLR) to the plasma membrane. CRLR acts as either a calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor or an adrenomedullin receptor, depending on which members of the RAMP family are expressed. The existence of RAMP3 effects CRLR to function as an adrenomedullin receptor. |
| Expression host |
E.coli. |
| Synonyms |
Receptor (calcitonin) activity modifying protein 3, Calcitonin-receptor-like receptor activity-modifying protein 3, CRLR activity-modifying protein 3, RAMP3. |
| 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. |
