Recombinant humaan BTC-eiwit, hFc-tag

Molecular Characterization: BTC (Asp32-Tyr111) hFc (Glu99-Ala330) Molecular weight: The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 35.1 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of BTC-hFc is approximately 35-70 kDa due to glycosylation.Description: Recombinant Human BTC Protein with C-terminal human Fc tagThis gene encodes a member of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) family of proteins. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants, at least one of which encodes a preproprotein that is proteolytically processed to generate the secreted growth factor. A secreted form and a membrane-anchored form of this protein bind to multiple different EGF receptors. This protein promotes pancreatic cell proliferation and insulin secretion, as well as retinal vascular permeability. Mutations in this gene may be associated with type 2 diabetes in human patients.

Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8% trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization.

Store at -20°C to -80°C for 12 months in lyophilized form. After reconstitution, if not intended for use within a month, aliquot and store at -80°C (Avoid repeated freezing and thawing) . Lyophilized proteins are shipped at ambient temperature.
