Active Recombinant Human Frizzled Family Receptor 8, Fc-tagged

• Cat.No.: FZD8-597H
• Product Overview: RecombinantHuman FZD8 protein was expressed in Chinese Hamster Ovary cell line with theFc part of Human IgG1 Pro100-Lys330 (C-terminus) and Human Frizzled-8 Ala25-Pro172(N-terminus).

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: CHO
• Tag: Fc
• Protein Length: 25-172 a.a.
• Description: FZD8 is one of atleast ten seventransmembrane (7TM) glycoprotein of the Frizzled family of Wntreceptors. Frizzled proteins are thought to be G-protein-coupled. Wnt engagement,with low density lipoprotein receptor related proteins LRP-5 or LRP-6 actingas co-receptors stabilizes β-catenin and promotes gene transcription that isimportant in development and tissue maintenance.
• Form: Supplied as a 0.2 μmfiltered solution in PBS.
• N-terminal Sequence: Ala25 & Ala28
• Molecular Weight: 43.3 kDa
• Activity: Measured by itsbinding ability in a functional ELISA. In a 100 μL reaction mixturecontaining biotinylated rmWnt-3a or rmWnt-5a at 50-100 ng/mL and rhFrizzled8/Fc Chimera dilutions at 0.1-8,000 ng/mL, the concentration of rhFrizzled8/ FcChimera that produces 50% of the optimal binding response is found to beapproximately 7-28 ng/mL.
• Endotoxin Level: <1.0 EU per 1 μgof the protein by the LAL method.
• SDS-PAGE: 55-65 kDa, reducingconditions
• Purity: >95%, by SDS-PAGEunder reducing conditions and visualized by silver stain.
• Reconstitution: Reconstitute at 500μg/mL in sterile PBS.
• Storage: Use amanual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. 12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 °C as supplied. 1month, 2 to 8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.3 months, -20 to-70 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
