| Description : |
Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 2 (CXCL2) is a small cytokine belonging to the CXC chemokine family that is also called macrophage inflammatory protein 2-alpha (MIP2-alpha), Growth-regulated protein beta (Gro-beta) and Gro oncogene-2 (Gro-2). CXCL2 is 90% identical in amino acid sequence as a related chemokine, CXCL1. This chemokine is secreted by monocytes and macrophages and is chemotactic for polymorphonuclear leukocytes and hematopoietic stem cells.CXCL2 mobilizes cells by interacting with a cell surface chemokine receptor called CXCR2.CXCL2, like related chemokines, is also a powerful neutrophil chemoattractant and is involved in many immune responses including wound healing, cancer metastasis, and angiogenesis. |
| 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 34.3 kDa. The protein migrates as 38-42 kDa 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-MALS. |
| 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. |
