Product Overview
Tag | N/A |
Host Species | Rhesus |
Synonym | C-C motif chemokine 5, Small-inducible cytokine A5, T-cell-specific protein RANTES, CCL5. |
Background | Regulated upon Activation, Normal T-cell Expressed, and Secreted or RANTES is an 8 kDa protein classified as a chemotactic cytokine or chemokine. It has recently been renamed CCL5. RANTES is chemotactic for T cells, eosinophils and basophils and plays an active role in recruiting leukocytes into inflammatory sites. With the help of particular cytokines (i.e. IL-2 and IFN-?) that are released by T cells, RANTES also induces the proliferation and activation of certain natural killer (NK) cells to form CHAK (CC-Chemokine-activated killer) cells. It is also a HIV-suppressive factor released from CD8+ T cells. This chemokine has been localized to chromosome 17 in humans. |
Description | Rantes Rhesus Macaque Recombinant expressed in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 68aa and having a molecular weight of 7.8kDa.The CCL5 is purified by our unique purification methods. |
Source | E.coli |
AA Sequence | SPHASDTTPC CFAYIARPLP RAHIKEYFYT SGKCSNPAVV FVTRKNRQVC ANPEKKWVRE YINSLEMS. |
Purity | >98.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
Endotoxin | <1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Bioactivity | The biological activity determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human peripheral blood monocytes is in a concentration range of 1.0-10 ng/ml. |
Formulation | Rantes protein was lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in 20mM PB pH 6.0 and 500mM NaCl. |
Stability | Recombinant protein is stable for 12 months at -70°C |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Lyophilized Rantes although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution CCL5 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
