Product Specifications

Description

A disulfide-linked homodimer of two 96 amino acid polypeptide chains corresponding to Persephin Source: E. coli

Uniprot ID: O70300

Amino Acid Sequence: ALAGSCRLWS LTLPVAELGL GYASEEKVIF RYCAGSCPQE ARTQHSLVLA RLRGRGRAHG RPCCQPTSYA DVTFLDDQHH WQQLPQLSAA ACGCGG

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

>95%, by SDS-PAGE and HPLC

Endotoxin Level

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

Predicted Molecular Mass

20.7 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

Persephin Protein is fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using human TT medullary thyroid cancer cells is less than 0.1 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1.0 x 10^7 IU/mg.

Protein / Peptide Type

Background: Persephin

Persephin belongs to the GDNF ligand subfamily of the TGF-beta superfamily. It promotes the survival and growth of central dopaminergic and motor neurons, and also is involved in kidney development. But persephin does not support survival of peripheral neurons.
