Product Overview
| Description | Recombinant Biotinylated Human Latent GDF-8 Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag and Avi Tag at the N-terminus.It contains Asn24-Ser375. |
| Gene Background | Growth/differentiation factor 8 (GDF8), or myostatin, negatively regulates muscle mass. GDF8 is held in a latent state through interactions with its N-terminal prodomain. GDF8, like numerous TGF-β family members, is a disulfidelinked dimer that is synthesized as a precursor protein which requires cleavage by a furin-like protease to yield an N-terminal prodomain and a C-terminal mature, signaling domain. |
| Accession | O14793 |
| Target Symbol | Latent GDF-8 |
| Synonyms | Myostatin; GDF8; Latent GDF8; Mstn |
| Species | Human |
| Expression System | Mammalian Cell |
| Purity | > 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE;> 95% as determined by HPLC |
| Tag | N-His-Avi |
| Expression Range | Asn24-Ser375 |
| Mol. Weight | The protein has a predicted MW of 43 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 14 kDa, 38-40 kDa and 45-52 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
| Form | Lyophilized |
| Formulation | Lyophilized from 0.22 um filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization. |
| Endotoxin | Less than 1 EU per ug by the LAL method. |
| Activity | Immobilized Biotinylated Human Latent GDF-8, His Avi Tag at 0.5ug/ml (100ul/well) on the streptavidin precoated plate (5ug/ml). Dose response curve for Apitegromab, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 2.7ng/ml determined by ELISA. |
| Biotinylated | Yes |
| Shipping | Shipped at ambient temperature. |
| Storage | -20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt.;-80°C for 3 months after reconstitution.;Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Reconstitution | Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. It is recommended to resuspend at 0.5 mg/mL if the lyophilized powder is 100 ug or less, at 1mg/ml for 500ug or 1mg lyophilized powder. Do not mix by vortex or vigorous shaking. |
