Description

A single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 76 amino acids and comprises only the chemokine domain of CX3CL1/Fractalkine Source: E. coli

Uniprot ID: P78423

Amino Acid Sequence: QHHGVTKCNI TCSKMTSKIP VALLIHYQQN QASCGKRAII LETRQHRLFC ADPKEQWVKD AMQHLDRQAA ALTRNG

This lyophilized preparation is stable for 12 months from date of receipt at -20 to -70 degrees C, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation can be stored for 1 month at 2-8 degrees C under sterile conditions, and for 3 months at -20 degrees C to -70 degrees C. Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Stock solutions should be aliquoted and stored at < -20 degrees C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions

Purity

> 97 % pure by SDS-PAGE and HPLC

Endotoxin Level

Less than 1 EU/ug of CX3CL1/Fractalkine as determined by LAL method.

Predicted Molecular Mass

8.6 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.

Activity

CX3CL1 Protein is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biological activity determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human T-lymphocytes is in a concentration of 5.0-10 ng/ml.

Background: CX3CL1/Fractalkine

CX3CL1 recently identified through bioinformatics is the only known member of the CX3C chemokine family and it is also commonly known under the names fractalkine (in humans) and neurotactin (in mice). Unlike other known chemokines, CX3CL1 is a type 1 membrane protein containing a chemokine domain tethered on a long mucinlike talk. The soluble form of CX3CL1 is chemotactic for T-cells and monocytes, but not for neutrophils. In addition, it may play a role in regulating leukocyte adhesion and migration processes at the endothelium. Recombinant Human CX3CL1 which is a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chains contains 76 amino acids and it shares approximately 78 % and 83 % amino acid sequence homology with the murine and rat protein.
