Latent TGF beta 1/TGFB1 Protein, Cynomolgus (C33S, HEK293, His)

Latent TGF beta 1/TGFB1 Protein is a large extracellular matrix protein and an associated ligand of fibrillinmicrofibrils. Latent TGF beta 1/TGFB1 Protein, Cynomolgus (C33S, HEK293, His) is a recombinant protein (L30-S390, C33S) produced by HEK293 cells with His tag^[1][2].

Latent TGF beta 1/TGFB1 Protein promotes fibrillin-1 and -2 assembly downstream of fibronectin in mouse embryonic fibroblasts^[3].

LTBP-1 fragments (30 µg/mL) inhibit the incorporation of native LTBP-1 into fibroblast matrix^[2].

Measured by its ability to inhibit proliferation of HT-2 mouse T cells. The ED₅₀ this effect is 1.306 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity is 7.66×105 units/mg.

  Greater than 90% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Lyophilized powder.

Lyophilized a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. Normally trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Stored at -20°C for 2 years. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
