Cat#:CCL8-001HP;Product Name:Recombinant Human CCL8 / MCP-2 Protein (SUMO Tag);Synonym:CCL8, Monocyte chemotactic protein 2, MCP-2, Monocyte chemoattractant protein 2, HC14, chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 8, MCP2, Small inducible cytokine A8;Description:Recombinant human CCL8 protein produced in E. coli was fused with the SUMO tag at the N-terminus. The recombinant human MCP-2 protein is purified by our unique chromatographic techniques.;Source:E. coli;Predicted N Terminal:Met;Molecular Characterization:The recombinant human CCL8 protein consisting of 187 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 21.7 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the protein is approximately 30 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.;Purity:Greater than 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE;Formulation:Recombinant human CCL8 protein was lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4;Stability:Recombinant human CCL8 proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70℃;Storage:Store recombinant human CCL8 protein under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the human MCP-2 protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.;References:Synergistic up-regulation of MCP-2/CCL8 activity is counteracted by chemokine cleavage, limiting its inflammatory and anti-tumoral effects.
