| Description | GRO-Beta Rat Recombinant also called Rat MIP-2 produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 73 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 7923 Dalton. The GRO-b is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Uniprot Accesion Number | P30348 |
| Amino Acid Sequence | VVVASELRCQ CLTTLPRVDF KNIQSLTVTP PGPHCAQTEV IATLKDGHEV CLNPEAPLVQ RIVQKILNKG KAN. |
| Source | Escherichia Coli. |
| Physical Appearance and Stability | Lyophilized GRO-b although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution CXCL2 should be stored at 4°C between 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. |
| Formulation and Purity | Lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4. Greater than 99.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Application | |
| Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized GRO-beta Rat in sterile 18MO-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
| Biological Activity | The biological activity was determined by its ability to chemoattract total human neutrophils using a concentration range of 1.0-10.0 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 100,000-1,000,000 units/mg. |
| Shipping Format and Condition | Lyophilized powder at room temperature. |
