Recombinant Human LYVE1, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: LYVE1-47H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human Soluble LYVE1 fused to a C-terminal His-tag (6xHis) produced inbaculovirusis a monomeric, glycosylated, polypeptide containing 232 amino acids (Met-1 to Gly 232) and having a total molecular mass of 25 kDa but as a result of glycosilation the Mw is 40 kDa. The LYVE-1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: Insect Cells
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: 1-232 a.a.
• Description: LYVE-1 has been identified as a major receptor for HA (extracellular matrix glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan) on the lymph vessel wall. The deduced amino acid sequence of LYVE-1 predicts a 322-residue type I integral membrane polypeptide 41% similar to the CD44 HA receptor with a 212-residue extracellular domain containing a single Link module the prototypic HA binding domain of the Link protein superfamily. Like CD44, the LYVE-1 molecule binds both soluble and immobilized HA. However, unlike CD44, the LYVE-1 molecule colocalizes with HA on the luminal face of the lymph vessel wall and is completely absent from blood vessels. Hence, LYVE-1 is the first lymph-specific HA receptor to be characterized and is a uniquely powerful marker for lymph vessels themselves.
• Purity: Greater than 95.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
• Physical Appearance: Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
• Formulation: LYVE1 was lyophilized from a concentrated (1 mg/ml) sterile solution containing no additives.
• Solubility: It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized LYVE1 in sterile water not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
• Storage: Lyophilized sLYVE-1 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution sLYVE-1 should be stored at 4°Cbetween 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
