Product Specifications

Description

A single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 120 amino acids corresponding to Midkine Source: E. coli

Uniprot ID: Q9R1S9

Amino Acid Sequence: VAKKKDKVKK GSECSEWTWG PCTPSSKDCG MGFREGTCGA QTQRIHCKVP CNWKKEFGAD CKYKFESWGA CDGSTGTKAR QGTLKKARYN AQCQETIRVT KPCTSKTKSK AKAKKGKGKD

This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8 degrees C, but should be kept at -20 degrees C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is most stable at -20 to -80 degrees C, and can be stored for one week at 2-8 degrees C. For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20 degrees C to -80 degrees C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Purity

> 97 % pure by SDS-PAGE and HPLC

Endotoxin Level

Less than 0.1 EU/ug of Midkine as determined by LAL method.

Predicted Molecular Mass

13.2 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

Midkine Protein is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biological activity determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human neutrophils is in a concentration range of 10-100 ng/ml.

Protein / Peptide Type

Background: Midkine

Midkine, also named MK, MK1, NEGF 2, is belonging to the neurotrophic and developmentally-regulated heparin-binding molecules family and it is encoded by the MDK gene. Midkine includes five intrachain disulfide bonds which held two domains and there are three antiparallel beta-sheets in each domain. A chondroitin sulfate proteoglycan, protein-tyrosine phosphatase zeta (PTPzeta), is a receptor for MK. MK promotes the growth, survival, and migration of various cells, and plays roles in neurogenesis and epithelial mesenchymal interactions during organogenesis. The predicted molecular weight is approximately 13.2 kDa, based on a mature peptide length of 118 amino acid residues in the mouse and 121 amino acid residues in the human. Mature rat midkine shares 99% and 91% a.a. sequence identity with human and murine midkine, respectively.
