Recombinant Murine Chemokine (C-C Motif) Ligand 4

• Cat.No.: Ccl4-105M
• Product Overview: Recombinant murine MIP-1 beta produced inE.coli is a 7.8 kDa protein containing 69 amino acid residues, including the four highly conserved cysteine residues present in CC chemokines.

Specification

• Cat. No.: Ccl4-105M
• Description: Both MIP-1 alpha and MIP-1 beta are structurally and functionally related CC chemokines. They participate in the host response to invading bacterial, viral, parasite and fungal pathogens by regulating the trafficking and activation state of selected subgroups of inflammatory cells e.g. macrophages, lymphocytes and NK cells. While both MIP-1 alpha and MIP-1 beta exert similar effects on monocytes their effect on lymphocytes differ; with MIP-1 alpha selectively attracting CD8+ lymphocytes and MIP-1 beta selectively attracting CD4+ lymphocytes. Additionally, MIP-1 alpha and MIP-1 beta have also been shown to be potent chemoattractants for B cells, eosinophils and dendritic cells. Both human and murine MIP-1 alpha and MIP-1 beta are active on human and murine hematopoietic cells.
• Source: E.coli.
• Purity: > 95% by SDS-PAGE.
• Endotoxin level: < 0.1 ng per μg of MIP-1 beta.
• Stabilizer: None.
• Formulation: Lyophilized.
• Biologically Activity: Determined by its ability to chemoattract human monocytes using a concentration range of 20.0-100.0 ng/ml.
• Reconstitution: The murine MIP-1 beta should be reconstituted in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. This solution can be diluted in water or other buffer solutions or stored at -20°C.
• Stability: The lyophilized protein is stable for a few weeks at room temperature, but best stored at -20°C. Reconstituted murine MIP-1 beta should be stored in working aliquots at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
