Recombinant Human RETN

• Cat.No.: RETN-29596TH
• Product Overview: Recombinant human Resistin, a 19.5 kDa disulfide-linked homodimeric protein composed of two identical 92 amino acid chains linked by a single disulfide bond.

Specification

• Description: This gene belongs to the family defined by the mouse resistin-like genes. The characteristic feature of this family is the C-terminal stretch of 10 cys residues with identical spacing. The mouse homolog of this protein is secreted by adipocytes, and may be the hormone potentially linking obesity to type II diabetes. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
• Source: E. coli
• Tissue specificity: Expressed only in fatty tissues.
• Form: Lyophilised:Reconstitute to 1mg/ml using sterile water.
• Storage: The lyophilized protein is stable for a few weeks at room temperature, but best stored at -20°C.
• Sequences of amino acids: SSKTLCSMEE AINERIQEVA GSLIFRAISS IGLECQSVTS RGDLATCPRG FAVTGCTCGS ACGSWDVRAE TTCHCQCAGM DWTGARCCRV QP
• Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the resistin/FIZZ family.
