Recombinant Human PLIN2, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: PLIN2-63H
• Product Overview: ADFP Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a signle, non-glycosylated, Polypeptide chain containing 444 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 49 kDa. The protein contains an extra 8 amino acid His tag at N-terminus. The ADFP amino acid sequence is identical to UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot entry Q99541 amino acids 4–437. The ADFP is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: 444 a.a.
• Description: The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the perilipin family, members of which coat intracellular lipid storage droplets. This protein is associated with the lipid globule surface membrane material, and maybe involved in development and maintenance of adipose tissue. However, it is not restricted to adipocytes as previously thought, but is found in a wide range of cultured cell lines, including fibroblasts, endothelial and epithelial cells, and tissues, such as lactating mammary gland, adrenal cortex, Sertoli and Leydig cells, and hepatocytes in alcoholic liver cirrhosis, suggesting that it may serve as a marker of lipid accumulation in diverse cell types and diseases. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found for this gene.
• Form: Human ADFP was lyophilized from 0.5mg/ml solution containing 20mM Tris pH-7.5, and 20mM NaCl.
• Molecular Mass: 49 kDa

• Purity: Greater than 95% as determined by SDS PAGE.
• Storage: Store lyophilized protein at -20°C. Aliquot the product after reconstitution to avoid repeated freezing/thawing cycles. Reconstituted protein can be stored at 4°C for a limited period of time; it does not show any change after two weeks at 4°C.
• Reconstitution: Add deionized water to prepare a working stock solution of approximately 0.5mg/mL and let the lyophilized pellet dissolve completely. Product is not sterile! Please filter the product by an appropriate sterile filter before using it in the cell culture.
