Description : |
This gene encodes elastin, the extracellular matrix protein that forms a major structural component of several tissues including lungs and arterial walls. Cleavage of the signal peptide from the encoded precursor generates soluble tropoelastin which undergoes lysine-derived crosslinking to form elastin polymers. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit defective lung development, and die of an obstructive arterial disease resulting from subendothelial cell proliferation and reorganization of smooth muscle. |

Purity : |
>95% |
Characteristic : |
The isoelectric point is 9. |
Applications : |
SDS-PAGE; WB; ELISA; IP. |
Stability : |
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate of the target protein. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37°C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. (Referring from China Biological Products Standard, which was calculated by the Arrhenius equation.) The loss of this protein is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition. |
Storage : |
Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. Store at 2-8°C for one month. Aliquot and store at -80°C for 12 months. |
Storage buffer : |
Supplied as lyophilized form in PBS, pH7.4, containing 5% sucrose, 0.01% sarcosyl. |
Reconstitution : |
Reconstitute in sterile PBS, pH7.2-pH7.4. |
