Recombinant Human PAPPA, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: PAPPA-28663TH
• Product Overview: Recombinant fragment of Human PAPP A fused with a N-terminal His tag, 34.5kDa.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: 191 amino acids
• Description: This gene encodes a secreted metalloproteinase which cleaves insulin-like growth factor binding proteins (IGFBPs). It is thought to be involved in local proliferative processes such as wound healing and bone remodeling. Low plasma level of this protein has been suggested as a biochemical marker for pregnancies with aneuploid fetuses.
• Conjugation: HIS
• Molecular Weight: 34.500kDa inclusive of tags
• Tissue specificity: High levels in placenta and pregnancy serum. In placenta, expressed in X cells in septa and anchoring villi, and in syncytiotrophoblasts in the chorionic villi. Lower levels are found in a variety of other tissues including kidney, myometrium, endometrium
• Form: Liquid
• Purity: >95% by SDS-PAGE
• Storage buffer: Constituents:49% PBS, 50% Glycerol
• Storage: Store at +4°C short term (1-2 weeks). Aliquot and store at -20°C long term. Avoid repeated freeze / thaw cycles.
• Sequence Similarities: Belongs to the peptidase M43B family.Contains 5 Sushi (CCP/SCR) domains.
