Anti-TFPI2 (Tissue Factor Pathway Inhibitor 2, TFPI-2, Placental Protein 5, PP5)

TFPI-2 (tissue factor pathway inhibitor-2, also placental protein 5/PP5) is a secreted, presumably 27-34kD glycoprotein member of the Kunitz domain-containing proteinase inhibitor family. In mouse, it is principally produced by endothelium, hepatocytes and synctiotrophoblasts, and serves as an inhibitor of multiple serine proteinases. Mature mouse TFPI-2 is 208aa in length. It contains three Kunitz inhibitor domains, the most N-terminal of which (aa36-86) is crucial to inhibitor activity. Over aa23-211, mouse TFPI-2 shares 86% and 58% aa sequence identity with rat and human TFPI-2, respectively. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for at least 12 months. For maximum recovery of product, 11c7entrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
