ActoFactor™ Recombinant Mouse Umor necrosis factor (ligand) superfamily, member 13

  • Specification
Cat.No.
CSC-CTK0715
Description
APRIL, a member of the TNF superfamily, is expressed in monocytes, macrophages, certain transformed cell lines, certain cancers of colon, and lymphoid tissues. APRIL, along with another TNF family member, BAFF, compete for two receptors, TACI and BCMA. APRIL has the ability to stimulate proliferation of various tumor cell lines including Jurkat T cells and MCF-7 carcinoma cells. Like BAFF, APRIL also stimulates the proliferation of B and T cells. The human APRIL gene codes for at least four alternatively spliced transcriptional variants, which give rise to different isoforms of the APRIL precursor protein. All isoforms can be cleaved by the protease, furin, to release a soluble C-terminal fragment, which comprises the TNF like receptor binding of the APRIL precursor. Recombinant murine APRIL is a soluble 21.9 kDa protein, consisting of 192 amino acid residues.
Species
Mouse
Product Overview
Mouse Tnfsf13 expressed in E.coli
Molecular Mass
21.9 kDa

CAT# CSC-CTK0715-20 (20 μg); CAT# CSC-CTK0715-100 (100 μg)
Expression System
E.coli
Purity
Greater than 98% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analysis.
Activity
Measured by its ability to induce cell proliferation of activated T cells.
Endotoxin Level
Less than 1 EU/μg.
Formulation
Lyophilized (freeze-dried), sterile powder. Lyophili zed from 10 mM acetate (pH 5.0) + 100 mM arginine.
Reconstitution
Please centrifuge product briefly before opening vial. The lyophilized protein should be reconstituted in sterile, ultra-pure water to a concentration of 0,1 - 1,0 mg/ml. This solution can then be diluted into other aqueous buffers and stored at -20°C for future use.
Storage & Stability
The lyophilized protein, though stable at room temperature for up to 3 weeks, is best stored desiccated at -20°C. Reconstituted rMu APRIL should be used immediately or stored long-term in undiluted working aliquots at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
