Recombinant Human LR3 Insuline-achtige groeifactor I/LR3-IGF-1 (MG)

Source: E.coli. MW :9.1kD. Recombinant Human LR3-IGF-1 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Gly49-Ala118 is expressed. Insulin-like growth factor I (IGF1) belongs to the family of insulin-like growth factors that are structurally homologous to proinsulin. Mature IGFs are generated by proteolytic processing of inactive precursor proteins, which contains the N- and C-terminal propeptide regions. Mature human IGF-I consisting of 70 amino acids has 94% identity with mouse IGF-I and exhibits cross-species activity. IGF-1 binds IGF-IR, IGF-IIR, and the insulin receptor and plays a key role in cell cycle progression, cell proliferation and tumor progression. IGF-1 expression is regulated by growth hormone. R3 IGF-1 is an 83 amino acid analog of IGF-1 comprising the complete human IGF-1 sequence with the substitution of an Arg (R) for the Glu (E) at position three, hence R3, and a 13 amino acid extension peptide at the N terminus. R3 IGF-1 has been produced with the purpose of increasing biological activity. R3 IGF-1 is significantly more potent than human IGF-I in vitro.

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 300mM HAc-NaAc, pH 6.5.

The product is shipped at ambient temperature.

Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at -20°C for 3 months.

Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 500mM Acetic Acid. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. Endotoxin : Less than 0.05 ng/μg (0.5 IEU/μg) as determined by LAL test. Biological Activity : ED50 is greater than 200 ng/ml.
