Recombinant Human C5 protein (R885H), His-tagged

• Cat.No.: C5-9288H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human C5 (R885H) protein (Gln19-Cys1676) protein was fused to His-tag at C-terminus and expressed in human 293 cells (HEK293).

Specification

• Description: Derived from proteolytic degradation of complement C5, C5 anaphylatoxin is a mediator of local inflammatory process. C5 precursor is first processed by the removal of 4 basic residues, forming two chains, beta and alpha, linked by a disulfide bond. C5 convertase activates C5 by cleaving the alpha chain, releasing C5a anaphylatoxin and generating C5b (beta chain + alpha' chain). Activation of C5 by a C5 convertase initiates the spontaneous assembly of the late complement components, C5-C9, into the membrane attack complex. C5b has a transient binding site for C6. The C5b-C6 complex is the foundation upon which the lytic complex is assembled. The C5a anaphylatoxin interacts with C5AR1 and tick complement inhibitor. C5a is also a potent chemokine which stimulates the locomotion of polymorphonuclear leukocytes and directs their migration toward sites of inflammation.
• Source: HEK293
• Species: Human
• Tag: His
• Predicted N Terminal: Gln19
• Form: Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4, 10% trehalose.
• Molecular Mass: The mature form of Complement C5 is a disulfide-linked heterodimer composed of proteolytically cleaved α and β chain. Each α and β chain has a calculated MW of 73.9 kDa (β chain) and 114.7 kDa (α chain). The protein migrates as 76 kDa (β chain) and 116 kDa (α chain) under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
• Protein length: Gln19-Cys1676
• Endotoxin: Less than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.
• Purity: >90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
• Storage: For long term storage, the product should be stored at lyophilized state at -20 centigrade or lower.
  Please avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
  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.
• Reconstitution: It is recommended that sterile water be added to the vial to prepare a stock solution of 0.2 ug/ul. Centrifuge the vial at 4℃ before opening to recover the entire contents.
