Recombinant Mouse Lcn2 protein(Met1-Asn200), His-tagged

• Cat.No.: Lcn2-3271M
• Product Overview: Recombinant Mouse LCN2 (NP_032517.1)(Met 1-Asn 200) was expressed in HEK293 with a C-terminal polyhistidine tag.

Specification

• Source: HEK293
• Species: Mouse
• Tag: C-His
• Protein length: Met1-Asn200
• Form: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
• Bio-activity: Measured by its ability to bind Iron(III) dihydroxybenzoic acid [Fe(DHBA)3]. The binding of Fe(DHBA)3 results in the quenching of Trp fluorescence in recombinant mouse Lipocalin-2. Recombinant mouse Lipocalin-2 can bind >1.0 μM of Fe(DHBA)3 .
• Molecular Mass: The secreted recombinant mouse LCN2 consists of 191 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 22.3 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the recombinant protein migrates as an approximately 25 kDa protein in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
• Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method
• Purity: > 97 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
• Storage: Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20°C to -80°C. Store it under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
• Reconstitution: It is recommended that sterile water be added to the vial to prepare a stock solution of 0.2 ug/ul. Centrifuge the vial at 4°C before opening to recover the entire contents.

Q&As

What diseases are associated with mutations or abnormal expression of the LCN2 protein?

Mutations or abnormal expression of the LCN2 protein may be associated with a variety of diseases. For example, in hereditary kidney disease, mutations in the uNGAL gene can lead to kidney damage. In addition, in inflammatory diseases, tumors, and other diseases, the expression level of LCN2 protein may also change.

What diseases are LCN2 protein expression levels associated with?

Studies have shown that the expression level of LCN2 protein is associated with a variety of diseases. For example, in kidney disease, expression levels of the LCN2 protein can be elevated and can be used as one of the biomarkers to assess the extent of kidney damage. In addition, in inflammatory diseases, tumors, and other diseases, the expression level of LCN2 protein can also change.

What is the interaction between the LCN2 protein and other proteins or molecules?

The interaction between the LCN2 protein and other proteins or molecules is complex. For example, it can participate in lipid metabolism processes by interacting with lipid molecules. In addition, it can interact with other signal transduction molecules to participate in the signal transduction process.

How can the expression level of LCN2 protein be used for disease diagnosis?

Kidney function can be assessed by measuring the level of uNGAL in urine, and to help diagnose kidney disease, etc. In addition, abnormal levels of LCN2 protein expression can also be used as an indicator to assess the risk and prognosis of other diseases.

How is the activity of LCN2 protein regulated?

The activity of the LCN2 protein is regulated by a variety of factors. First, its expression level is regulated by gene expression. Secondly, its activity is also regulated by a variety of small molecule compounds, hormones and other substances. In addition, the LCN2 protein can also regulate its activity by interacting with other proteins.

How does the LCN2 protein relate to other biomarkers?

LCN2 protein has some association with other biomarkers. For example, in kidney disease, expression levels of uNGAL can be used alongside traditional biomarkers such as creatinine to assess kidney function and degree of impairment. In addition, in diseases such as tumors, expression levels of the LCN2 protein may also change and be associated with other biomarkers.
