Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: HEK293
• Tag: Fc
• Protein Length: 749
• Description: Lysyl oxidase homolog 2 is also known as LOXL2, Lysyl oxidase-like protein 2, which is expressed in many tissues, highest expression in reproductive tissues, placenta, uterus and prostate, Up-regulated in a number of cancers cells and tissues. LOXL2 mediates the post-translational oxidative deamination of lysine residues on target proteins leading to the formation of deaminated lysine (allysine). When secreted in extracellular matrix, promotes cross-linking of extracellular matrix proteins by mediating oxidative deamination of peptidyl lysine residues in precursors to fibrous collagen and elastin. LOXL2 acts as a regulator of sprouting angiogenesis, probably via collagen IV scaffolding. When nuclear, acts as a transcription corepressor and specifically mediates deamination of trimethylated 'Lys-4' of histone H3 (H3K4me3), a specific tag for epigenetic transcriptional activation. LOXL2 acts as a regulator of chondrocyte differentiation, probably by regulating expression of factors that control chondrocyte differentiation.
• Form: Lyophilized from 0.22 um filtered solution in Tris with Glycine, Arginine and NaCl, pH7.5, 10% trehalose.
• Molecular Mass: The protein has a calculated MW of 111.6 kDa. As a result of Glycosylation, the protein migrates as 120-130 kDa under reducing (R) condition, and 200-240 kDa under non-reducing (NR) condition (SDS-PAGE).
• Endotoxin: Less than 1.0 EU per ug by the LAL method.
• Purity: >75% 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 centigrade 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.
