Macrosialin (Cd68), partial, mouse, recombinant

Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse). Source: Yeast. Expression Region: 21-291aa. Protein Length: Extracellular Domain. Tag Info: N-terminal 6xHis-tagged. Target Protein Sequence: DCPHKKAVTL LPSFTMTPTA TESTASPTTS HRPTTTSHGN VTVHTSSGPT TVTHNPATTT SHGNATISHA TVSPTTNGTA TSPRSSTVGP HPGPPPPSPS PRSKGALGNY TWANGSQPCV QLQAQIQIRI LYPIQGGRKA WGISVLNPNK TKVQGGCDGT HPHLSLSFPY GQLTFGFKQD LHQSPSTVYL DYMAVEYNVS FPQAAQWTFM AQNSSLRELQ APLGQSFCCG NASIVLSPAV HLDLLSLRLQ AAQLPDKGHF GPCFSCNRDQ S. Purity: Greater than 90% 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: Could play a role in phagocytic activities of tissue macrophages, both in intracellular lysosomal metabolism and Extracellular domain cell-cell and cell-pathogen interactions. Binds to tissue- and organ-specific lectins or selectins, allowing homing of macrophage subsets to particular sites. Rapid recirculation of CD68 from endosomes and lysosomes to the plasma mbrane may allow macrophages to crawl over selectin-bearing substrates or other cells.
