Recombinant Human S100A8, His-tagged

Cat. No. :	S100A8-3732H
Description :	Protein S100-A8 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the S100A8 gene. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the S100 family of proteins containing 2 EF-hand calcium-binding motifs. S100 proteins are localized in the cytoplasm and/or nucleus of a wide range of cells, and involved in the regulation of a number of cellular processes such as cell cycle progression and differentiation. S100 genes include at least 13 members which are located as a cluster on chromosome 1q21. This protein may function in the inhibition of casein kinase and as a cytokine. Altered expression of this protein is associated with the disease cystic fibrosis.
Source :	E. coli
Species :	Human
Form :	Filtered (0,4 μm) and lyophilized in 0.5 mg/mL in 20mM TRIS, 100mM NaCl, pH 7.5
Reconstitution :	Add deionized water to prepare a working stock solution of approximately 0.5 mg/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.
Applications :	Western blotting
Quality Control Test :	BCA to determine quantity of the protein; SDS PAGE to determine purity of the protein
