产品信息(Product Info)
表达区间及表达系统(Source)

Recombinant Human GDF15 Protein is expressed from E.coli with His tag at the N-Terminus.
It contains Ala197-Ile308 [Accession | Q99988-1].

分子量大小(Molecular Weight)

The protein has a predicted MW of 13.5 kDa. The protein migrates to 15-16 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result.

纯度(Purity)

>95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE

内毒素(Endotoxin)

Less than 1 EU per μg by the LAL method.

制剂(Formulation)

Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in 50mM HAc (pH 2.9). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

重构方法(Reconstitution)

Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 50 mM HAc (pH 2.9).

存储(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.

产品数据(Assay Data)
Bis-Tris PAGE

Human GDF15 on Bis-Tris PAGE under reduced (R) condition and Non reducing (N) condition. The purity is greater than 95%.

ELISA Data

Immobilized Human GDF15, His Tag at 0.5 μg/ml (100 μl/well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Human GFRAL, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 13.1 ng/ml determined by ELISA (QC Test).

SPR Data

Human GFRAL, hFc Tag captured on CM5 Chip via Protein A can bind Human GDF15, His Tag with an affinity constant of 0.014 nM as determined in SPR assay (Biacore T200).

Blocking Data

Serial dilutions of Anti-GDF15 Antibody were added into Human GDF15, His Tag : Biotinylated Human GFRAL, His Tag binding reactioins. The half maximal inhibitiory concentration (IC50) is 40.8 ng/ml.

背景(Background)

Growth Differentiation Factor 15 (GDF15), also known as NSAID activated gene-1 (NAG-1), is associated with a large number of biological processes and diseases, including cancer and obesity. GDF15 is synthesized as pro-GDF15, is dimerized, and is cleaved and secreted into the circulation as a mature dimer GDF15.
