Proopiomelanocortin Human Recombinant ( POMC Human )

Data sheet

Formulation

POMC protein solution (0.25mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 1mM DTT, 50% glycerol and 0.2M NaCl.

Purity

Greater than 85.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Description

POMC produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 262 amino acids (27-267 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 28.9kDa (molecular weight on SDS-PAGE will appear higher).POMC is fused to a 21 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus

Protein Background

Pro-opiomelanocortin preproprotein (POMC) is a polypeptide hormone precursor which experiences extensive, tissue-specific, post-translational processing via cleavage by subtilisin-like enzymes known as prohormone convertases. POMC regulates the corticoste

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms

Pro-opiomelanocortin, POMC, Corticotropin-lipotropin, LPH, MSH, NPP, POC, ACTH, CLIP.

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.
