| Description : |
The protein encoded by this gene is one of six similar proteins that bind insulin-like growth factors I and II (IGF-I and IGF-II). The encoded protein can be secreted into the bloodstream, where it binds IGF-I and IGF-II with high affinity, or it can remain intracellular, interacting with many different ligands. High expression levels of this protein promote the growth of several types of tumors and may be predictive of the chances of recovery of the patient. Several transcript variants, one encoding a secreted isoform and the others encoding nonsecreted isoforms, have been found for this gene. |

| Endotoxin : |
< 1 EU/ug |
| Purity : |
Above 98% as determined by SDS-PAGE Analysis. |
| Storage : |
Store at -20 centigrade. |
| Reconstitution : |
Centrifuge vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. Store at 2 centigrade to 8 centigrade for 1 week, or prepare for extended storage. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein(example 0.1& BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20 centigrade to -80 centigrade. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
