| Description : |
TWEAK (tumor necrosis factor-like weak inducer of apoptosis) is a member of the TNF superfamily that controls a multitude of cellular events including proliferation, migration, differentiation, apoptosis, angiogenesis, and inflammation. TWEAK exists in both membrane-bound and secreted forms, and can induce cell apoptosis via multiple pathways of cell death in a cell type-specific manner. It has also been found to promote the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells, and thus acts as a regulator of angiogenesis. |
| Form : |
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant. |
| Bio-activity : |
Human TWEAK Protein, Fc Tag immobilized on CM5 Chip can bind Human TWEAK R, Fc Tag with an affinity constant of 42.8 pM as determined in a SPR assay. |
| Molecular Mass : |
The protein has a calculated MW of 43.6 kDa. The protein migrates as 33 kDa and 48-53 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation. |
| Endotoxin : |
Less than 1.0 EU/μg by the LAL method/rFC method. |
| Purity : |
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Storage : |
This product is stable after storage at: -20 to -70 centigrade for 12 months in lyophilized state; -70 centigrade for 3 months under sterile conditions after reconstitution. For long term storage, the product should be stored at lyophilized state at -20 centigrade or lower. Please 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 μg/μL. Centrifuge the vial at 4 centigrade before opening to recover the entire contents. |
