| Description : |
Insulin receptor (INSR) is also known as CD antigen CD220, which can be cleaved into the following 2 chains: Insulin receptor subunit alpha and Insulin receptor subunit beta. INSR is a tetramer of 2 alpha and 2 beta chains linked by disulfide bonds. The alpha chains carry the insulin-binding regions, while the beta chains carry the kinase domain. Forms a hybrid receptor with IGF1R, the hybrid is a tetramer consisting of 1 alpha chain and 1 beta chain of INSR and 1 alpha chain and 1 beta chain of IGF1R. In addition to binding insulin, the insulin receptor can bind insulin-like growth factors (IGFI and IGFII). Isoform Short of INSR has a higher affinity for IGFII binding. When present in a hybrid receptor with IGF1R, INSR binds IGF1. |
| Form : |
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant. |
| Molecular Mass : |
The protein has a calculated MW of 107.5 kDa. The protein migrates as 110-130 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.
>90% as determined by SEC-HPLC. |
| 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. |
