Glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), Pongo abelii, recombinant

Organism: Pongo abelii (Sumatran orangutan) (Pongo pygmaeus abelii). Source: E.coli. Expression Region: 1-432aa. Protein Length: Full Length. Tag Info: N-terminal 10xHis-tagged. Target Protein Sequence: MERRRITSAA RRSYISSGEM MVGGLAPGRR LGPGTRLSLA RMPPPLPTRV DFSLAGALNA GFKETRASER AEMMELNDRF ASYIEKVRFL EQQNKALAAE LNQLRAKEPT KLADVYQAEL RELRLRLDQL TANSARLEVE RDNLAQDLGT VRQKLQDETN LRLEAENNLA AYRQEADEAT LARLDLERKT ESLEEEIRFL RKIHEEEVRE LQEQLARQQV HVELDMAKPD LTAALKEIRT QYEAMASSNM HEAEEWYRSK FADLTDAAAR NAELLRQAKH EANDYRRQLQ SLTCDLESLR GTNESLERQM REQEERHARE AASYQEALAR LEEEGQSLKD EMARHLQEYQ DLLNVKLALD IEIATYRKLL EGEENRITIP VQTFSNLQIR ETSLDTKSVS EGHLKRNIVV KTVEMRDGEV IKESKQEHKD VM. Purity: Greater than 85% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Endotoxin: Not test. Biological Activity: n/a. Form: Liquid or Lyophilized powder. Buffer: If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0. 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: GFAP, a class-III intermediate filament, is a cell-specific marker that, during the development of the central nervous system, distinguishes astrocytes from other glial cells.
