Description
Product Name: | Ovine GHBP Recombinant Protein |
Product Code: | RPPB0350 |
Size: | 20µg |
Species: | Ovine |
Target: | GHBP |
Synonyms: | GHR, GHBP, GH receptor, Somatotropin receptor. |
Source: | Escherichia Coli |
Physical Appearance: | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
Formulation: | GHBP was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution with 0.0045mM NaHCO3. |
Solubility: | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Growth Hormone Binding Protein in sterile 18M?-cm H2O not less than 100�g/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
Stability: | Lyophilized Growth Hormone Binding Protein although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution GHBP 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. |
Purity: | Greater than 95.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by SEC-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
Amino Acid Sequence: | The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ala-Phe-Ser-Gly-Ser |
UniProt Code: | Q28575 |
GHBP is a transmembrane receptor for growth hormone. Binding of growth hormone to the receptor leads to receptor dimerization and the activation of an intra- and intercellular signal transduction pathway leading to growth. A common alternate allele of this gene, called GHRd3, lacks exon three and has been well-characterized. Mutations in this gene have been associated with Laron syndrome, also known as the growth hormone insensitivity syndrome (GHIS), a disorder characterized by short stature. Other splice variants, including one encoding a soluble form of the protein (GHRtr), have been observed but have not been thoroughly characterized.
Growth Hormone Binding Protein Ovine Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 237 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 28 kDa. GHBP is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
