Recombinant Human PRG4 Protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: PRG4-413H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human PRG4(Val1151~Gly1241) fused with His tag at N-terminal was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: Val1151~Gly1241
• Description: The protein encoded by this gene is a large proteoglycan that is synthesized by chondrocytes located at the surface of articular cartilage and by some synovial lining cells. This protein contains both chondroitin sulfate and keratan sulfate glycosaminoglycans. It functions as a boundary lubricant at the cartilage surface and contributes to the elastic absorption and energy dissipation of synovial fluid. Mutations in this gene result in camptodactyly-arthropathy-coxa vara-pericarditis syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
• Source: E. coli
• Species: Human
• Tag: His
• Form: PBS, pH7.4, containing 0.01% SKL, 1mM DTT, 5% Trehalose and Proclin300.
• Molecular Mass: 11.6kDa
• Endotoxin: <1.0EU per 1µg (determined by the LAL method)
• Purity: > 98%
• Applications: Positive Control; Immunogen; SDS-PAGE; WB.
  If bio-activity of the protein is needed, please check active protein.
• Stability: The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 centigrade for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
• Storage: Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Store at 2-8 centigrade for one month. Aliquot and store at -80 centigrade for 12 months.
• Reconstitution: Reconstitute in PBS or others.
