Catalog #: CHM-322
Description:
Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-4 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 69 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 7813 Dalton.
The MIP-4 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms:
Small inducible cytokine A18, CCL18, Macrophage inflammatory protein 4, MIP-4, Pulmonary and activation-regulated chemokine, CC chemokine PARC, Alternative macrophage activation-associated CC chemokine 1, AMAC-1, Dendritic cell chemokine 1, DC-CK1, chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 18, CKb7, PARC, AMAC1, DCCK1, SCYA18.
Source:
Escherichia Coli.
Amino Acid Sequence:
The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids of MIP-4 was determined and found to be Ala-Gln-Val-Gly-Thr.
Purity:
Greater than 97.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Solubility:
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized MIP-4 in sterile 18M?-cm H2O not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Formulation:
MIP-4 protein is lyophilized from a 0.2?m filtered concentrated (1.0mg/ml) solution in 20mM PB, pH 7.4, 100mM NaCl.
Stability:
Lyophilized MIP-4 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18 °C. Upon reconstitution MIP-4 should be stored at 4 °C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18 °C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Activity:
The Activity MIP-4 is calculated by the ability to chemoattract Human T lymphocytes at 1-10ng/ml corresponding to a Specific Activity of 100,000-1,000,000IU/mg.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
