Recombinant Human GH1 Protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: GH1-2010H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human GH Protein is produced by E. coli expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Phe27-Phe217) of human GH (Accession #NP_000506.2) fused with an initial Met at the N-terminus and a 6×His tag at the C-terminus.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: Phe27-Phe217
• Description: The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the somatotropin/prolactin family of hormones which play an important role in growth control. The gene, along with four other related genes, is located at the growth hormone locus on chromosome 17 where they are interspersed in the same transcriptional orientation; an arrangement which is thought to have evolved by a series of gene duplications. The five genes share a remarkably high degree of sequence identity. Alternative splicing generates additional isoforms of each of the five growth hormones, leading to further diversity and potential for specialization. This particular family member is expressed in the pituitary but not in placental tissue as is the case for the other four genes in the growth hormone locus. Mutations in or deletions of the gene lead to growth hormone deficiency and short stature.
• Form: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4, 5 % trehalose, 5 % mannitol.
• Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
• Purity: > 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE
• Stability: Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -70ºC.
• Storage: Store it under sterile conditions at -20ºC~-70ºC. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
• Reconstitution: It is recommended that sterile water be added to the vial to prepare a stock solution of 0.2 ug/ul. Centrifuge the vial at 4℃ before opening to recover the entire contents.
