Name : Human GCGR/Glucagon receptor Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human GCGR/Glucagon receptor Protein is expressed from HEK293 with hFc tag at the C-terminus. It contains Ala26-Lys136.[Accession | P47871]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 39.00 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 55-70 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

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

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

Formulation :
Supplied as 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4).

Reconstitution :

Storage and Stability :
Valid for 12 months from date of receipt when stored at -80°C. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Human GCGR on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Human GCGR is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC.

Background :
The pancreatic hormone Glucagon activates the Glucagon receptor (GCGR), a class B seven-transmembrane G protein-coupled receptor that couples to the stimulatory heterotrimeric G protein and provokes PKA-dependent signaling cascades vital to hepatic glucose metabolism and islet insulin secretion. The GCGR expressed at the plasma membrane is constitutively ubiquitinated and upon agonist-activation, internalized GCGRs are deubiquitinated at early endosomes and recycled via Rab4-containing vesicles.

Synonyms :
Glucagon receptor; GL-R; GCGR; Glucagon R
