Name : Biotinylated Human GDF15 Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Biotinylated Human GDF15 Protein is expressed from E.coli with His tag and Avi tag at the N-Terminus. It contains Ala197-Ile308.[Accession | Q99988-1]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 15.19 kDa same as Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Endotoxin Level :
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Purity :
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE

Formulation :
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in 50mM HAc (pH 2.9). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Reconstitution :
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 50mM HAc (pH 2.9).

Storage and Stability :
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt.-80°C for 3-6 months after reconstitution.2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution.Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Biotinylated Human GDF15 on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced (R) condition and Non reducing (N) condition. The purity is greater than 95%. ELISA Data Immobilized Human GFRAL, hFc Tag at 1μg/ml (100μl/Well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Biotinylated Human GDF15, His Tag with the EC50 of 24ng/ml determined by ELISA.

Background :
Growth Differentiation Factor 15 (GDF15), also known as NSAID activated gene-1 (NAG-1), is associated with a large number of biological processes and diseases, including cancer and obesity. GDF15 is synthesized as pro-GDF15, is dimerized, and is cleaved and secreted into the circulation as a mature dimer GDF15.

Synonyms :
