GDF-3 Recombinant Protein

CATALOG NUMBER: 40-220

Specifications
source-species:
E. coli
Species:
Human
source-species:
E. coli
Recombinant Protein Sequence:
AAIPVPKLSC KNLCHRHQLF INFRDLGWHK WIIAPKGFMA NYCHGECPFS LTISLNSSNY AFMQALMHAV DPEIPQAVCI PTKLSPISML YQDNNDNVIL RHYEDMVVDE CGCG
Biological Activity:
Biological activity was determined by its ability to inhibit induced alkaline phosphatase production by ATDC - 5 chondrogenic cells. The ED50 for this effect is 100 - 150 ng/mL.
Purity:
Greater than 98% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC analyses.

Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per μg (1EU/μg).
physical-state:
Lyophilized
Storage Conditions:
The lyophilized GDF-3 recombinant protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt at -20°C. Reconstituted GDF-3 is stable for at least 3 months when stored in working aliquots with a carrier protein at -20°C. As with any protein, exposing GDF-3 recombinant protein to repeated freeze / thaw cycles is not recommended. When working with proteins care should be taken to keep recombinant protein at a cool and stable temperature.

Ncbi Gene Id Number:
9573
Background:
GDF-3 is a member of the TGF-β superfamily of growth and differentiation factors, and is highly homologous to GDF-9. Unlike most TGF-β family members, GDF-3 and GDF-9 are not disulfide-linked dimers. GDF-3 is expressed in adult bone marrow, spleen, thymus, and adipose tissue. The expression of GDF-3 is upregulated in high-fat-fed wild-type FABP4/aP2 null mice and was associated with obesity, but not with the related hyperglycemia/hyperinsulinemia which characterizes Type 2 diabetes. Recombinant human GDF-3 is a 26.0 kDa non-disulfide-linked homodimer containing two 114 amino acid polypeptide chains.
