• Cat.No.: BMP8B-283H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human BMP8B Protein (Ala264-His402) with N-His tag was expressed in E. coli and Animal-free as well as Carrier-free.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: Ala264-His402
• Description: Bone Morphogenetic Protein-8B (BMP-8B) is an extracellular multifunctional signaling cytokine that is also a member of the TGF-β family. BMP-8B can bind with the TGF-β receptor and is involved in SMAD protein signal transduction. BMP-8B plays a role in bone and cartilage development. It is expressed in brown adipose tissues and the hypothalamus, which can affect thermogenesis and susceptibility to obesity.
• Form: Lyophilized
• Bio-activity: Measure by its ability to induce alkaline phosphatase production by ATDC5 cells. The ED50 for this effect is < 21.8 ng/mL.
• Molecular Mass: The protein has a calculated MW of 16.48 kDa.
  The protein migrates as 18 kDa under reducing condition (SDS-PAGE analysis).
• Endotoxin: < 0.01 EU/μg of the protein by the LAL method.
• Purity: >98% as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
• Storage: This product is stable after storage at:
  -20 centigrade for 12 months in lyophilized state from date of receipt.
  -20 or -80 centigrade for 1 month under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
  Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
• Storage Buffer: Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution containing 20 mM sodium citrate and 0.2 M NaCl, pH 3.5.
• Reconstitution: It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in 4 mM HCl to a concentration not less than 200 μg/mL and incubate the stock solution for at least 20 min to ensure sufficient re-dissolved.
• Shipping: The product is shipped with polar packs. Upon receipt, store it immediately at -20 centigrade or lower for long term storage.
