C-C motif chemokine 3 protein (Ccl3) (Active), rat, recombinant

Organism: Rattus norvegicus (Rat). Source: E.Coli. Expression Region: 24-92aa. Protein Length: Full Length of Mature Protein. Tag Info: Tag-Free. Target Protein Sequence: APYGADTPTA CCFSYGRQIP RKFIADYFET SSLCSQPGVI FLTKRNRQIC ADPKETWVQE YITELELNA. Purity: >98% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Endotoxin: Less than 1.0 EU/µg as determined by LAL method. Biological Activity: Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biological activity determined by a chemoattract bioassay using human blood monocytes is in a concentration range of 10-100 ng/ml. Form: Lyophilized powder. Buffer: Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in 30 % Acetonitrile and 0.1 % TFA. Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20 °C/-80 °C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference. Storage: The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. Notes: Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4 °C for up to one week. Relevance: Monokine with inflammatory and chemokinetic properties. Has chemotactic activity for monocytes, neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils, and lymphocytes. Required for lung TNF-alpha production, neutrophil recruitment and subsequent lung injury and may function as an autocrine mediator for the macrophage production of TNF-alpha which in turn up-regulates vascular adhesion molecules required for neutrophil influx. This protein binds heparin. Reference: n/a. Function: Monokine with inflammatory and chemokinetic properties.
