Name :
SPOCK1 Protein

Description :
Osteonectin, also known as SPOCK1, is an extracellular heparan/chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan. Members of this family are known as testicans, also called SPOCKs. They are characterized structurally by an N-terminal testican-specific domain, a follistatin-like region, a calcium-binding domain, a thyroglobulin-like domain, and an acidic C-terminal domain with two putative glycosaminoglycan attachment sites. SPOCKs are enriched in brain and have been shown to regulate neuronal attachment and outgrowth. They contain inhibitory regions in several domains targeted to different classes of protease, and in some cases may act as protease inhibitors. Osteonectin contains 1 Kazal-like domain and 1 thyroglobulin type-1 domain. Up to now, little is known about osteonectin’s function. It may play a role in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. Osteonectin also may contribute to various neuronal mechanisms in the central nervous system.

Formulatione :
Lyophilized from sterile 20mM Tris, 500mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, pH 7.4. Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % – 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0. 01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA.

Reconstitution :
A hardcopy of datasheet with reconstitution instructions is sent along with the products. Please refer to it for detailed information.

Stability & Storage :
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Shipping :
In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature.Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise.
