Proteins and Peptides

Malformin C is a natural fungus-derived bicyclic pentapeptide that has antibacterial properties, particularly against species of Bacillus. Malformin C potently blocks the ability of bleomycin (Cay-13877) to induce G2 arrest in human T-cell leukemia-derived Jurkat cells (IC50 = 0.9 nM). It less potently abrogates...

Human NLR Family Pyrin Domain Containing 3 (NLRP3), also known as NALP3, Cold Autoinflammatory Syndrome 1 Protein (CIAS1), cryopyrin and PYPAF1, Genbank Accession No. NM_004895, a.a. 134-1036(end) with N-terminal FLAG-tag, expressed in a HEK293 expression system. MW = 105 kDa.

Human NEK7, also known as NIMA Related Kinase 7, GenBank Accession No. NM_133494, a.a. 2-302 (end), with N-terminal His-tag, expressed in a HEK293 cell expression system. MW=37 kDa.

A fluorogenic substrate for caspase 3, a protease that is rapidly activated when cells are exposed to apoptotic conditions and that cleaves poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase.

Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA), Fraction V is used for various biochemical applications including ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay), high content screenining assays, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. BSA as a blocking reagent is particularly useful with casein-sensitive antibodies, such as...

The heparin-binding growth factors are angiogenic agents in vivo and are potent mitogens for a variety of cell types in vitro. There are differences in the tissue distribution and concentration of these 2 growth factors. (www.uniprot.org) Produced in E.coli. Single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 154...

Cytokine that binds to TNFRSF1A/TNFR1 and TNFRSF1B/TNFBR. It is mainly secreted by macrophages and can induce cell death of certain tumor cell lines. It is potent pyrogen causing fever by direct action or by stimulation of interleukin-1 secretion and is implicated in the induction of cachexia, Under certain...

Ready for use. Recombinant TVMV protease with an N-terminal His-tag for simple removal from the cleavage reaction by immobilization on metal-affinity resins. TVMV protease cleaves the sequence ETVRQS, with cleavage occuring between Q and S residues with high specifity. It is mainly used for removing affinity tags...

Produced by activated macrophages, IL-1 stimulates thymocyte proliferation by inducing IL-2 release, B-cell maturation and proliferation, and fibroblast growth factor activity. IL-1 proteins are involved in the inflammatory response, being identified as endogenous pyrogens, and are reported to stimulate the release...

alpha-Bungarotoxin is a snake venom-derived toxin that irreversibly binds nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (Ki = ~2.5 µM in rat) present in skeletal muscle, blocking action of acetylcholine at the postsynaptic membrane and leading to paralysis. It has been widely used to characterize activity at the neuromuscular...

Fibrinogen is a plasma clotting factor composed of three different polypeptide chains (alpha, beta and gamma). Under chronic inflammatory conditions, fibrinogen can be acted upon by the enzyme peptidylarginine deiminase 4 (PAD4), converting specific arginine residues to citrulline. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis...
