Product Summary for SMOC-1 Overexpression Lysate

SMOC-1 Transient Overexpression Lysate
Expression Host: HEK293T

Plasmid: RC224279

Accession#: NM_022137

Protein Tag: C-MYC/DDK

You will receive 1 vial of lysate (100ug), 1 vial of empty vector negative control (100ug), and 1 vial of 2xSDS sample buffer (250ul). Each vial of cell lysate contains 100ug of total protein (at 1 mg/ml). The 2xSDS Sample Buffer consists of 4% SDS, 125mM Tris-HCl pH6.8, 10% Glycerol, 0.002% Bromophenol blue, 100mM DTT.

Product Specifications

Application Notes

This product is intended for use as a positive control in Western Blot. Overexpression of the target protein was confirmed using an antibody to DDK (FLAG) epitope tag (NBP1-71705) present on the protein construct.

Each vial of cell lysate contains 100ug of total protein which should be sufficient for 20-50 reactions. Depending on over-expression level, antibody affinity and detection system, some lysates can go as low as 0.1 ug per load. We recommend starting with 5ug of cell lysate. Add an equal amount of cell lysate and 2X SDS Sample buffer and boil the SDS samples for 10 minutes before loading.

TMW

48 kDa.
Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Background: SMOC-1

SMOC-1 (secreted, or SPARC-related, modular calcium-binding protein 1) is a 70-90 kDa secreted glycoprotein that is a member of the SPARC family of matricellular molecules. Mature mouse SMOC-1 is 427 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains one Kazal-like domain (aa 42-86), two thyroglobulin type-1 segments (aa 91-157 and 223-291) and two functional EF-hand sequences (aa 358-393 and 395-430). Two splice variants contain an insertion of eleven aa after Lys174, with one of these also including an alternate start site at Met65. Mature mouse SMOC-1 shares 99% aa identity with rat SMOC-1 and 92% aa identity with human, canine and bovine SMOC-1. The principal difference between rodents and other mammals is an additional 19 aa near the C-terminus of rodent SMOC-1. Like other matricellular proteins, SMOC-1 is primarily expressed in basement membranes, although it has also been found in other extracellular matrices and the oocyte zona pellucida. It is present early in mouse embryogenesis, and is produced by cells deriving from all three germ layers. Recombinant bacterially produced human SMOC-1 and SMOC-2 were both shown to bind the acute phase protein, C-reactive protein, and the adhesion proteins, fibulin and vitronectin. A signaling role for SMOC-1 was shown in rat mesangial cells: induction of nitric oxide in response to inflammatory cytokines downregulates SMOC-1 which, in turn, downregulates expression of TGF-beta and TGF-beta-regulated genes. This mechanism is proposed to limit the profibrotic effects of TGF-beta, for example in the glomerulus. In Xenopus, the SMOC paralog has been shown to antagonize BMP activity.

Product Specific Notices for SMOC-1 Overexpression Lysate

HEK293T cells in 10-cm dishes were transiently transfected with a non-lipid polymer transfection reagent specially designed and manufactured for large volume DNA transfection. Transfected cells were cultured for 48hrs before collection. The cells were lysed in modified RIPA buffer (25mM Tris-HCl pH7.6, 150mM NaCl, 1% NP-40, 1mM EDTA, 1xProteinase inhibitor cocktail mix, 1mM PMSF and 1mM Na3VO4, and then centrifuged to clarify the lysate. Protein concentration was measured by BCA protein assay kit.

This product is for research use only and is not approved for use in humans or in clinical diagnosis. Lysates are guaranteed for 6 months from date of receipt.
