Recombinant Human FABP4

• Cat.No.: FABP4-3636H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human FABP4, fused with N-terminal methionin (highlighted), was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Description: FABP4 encodes the fatty acid binding protein found in adipocytes. Fatty acid binding proteins are a family of small, highly conserved, cytoplasmic proteins that bind long-chain fatty acids and other hydrophobic ligands. It is thought that FABPs roles include fatty acid uptake, transport, and metabolism.

• Purity: >90%
• Applications: ELISA; Western blotting
• Quality Control Test: BCA to determine quantity of the protein.SDS PAGE to determine purity of the protein.
• Notes: This product is intended for research use only.
• Storage: Store lyophilized protein at –20°C. Lyophilized protein remains stable until the expiry date when stored at –20°C. Aliquot reconstituted protein to avoid repeated freezing/thawing cycles and store at –80°C for long term storage. Reconstituted protein can be stored at 4°C for a limited period of time; it does not show any change after one week at 4°C.
• Reconstitution: Add deionized water to prepare a working stock solution of approximately 0.5 mg/mL and let the lyophilized pellet dissolve completely. Filter sterilize your culture media/working solutions containing this non-sterile product before using in cell culture.
• Shipping: At ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store the product at the temperature recommended below.
