Cat#:RP-1982M;Product Name:Recombinant Mouse TNF a Protein;Synonym:TNF-alpha, Tumor necrosis factor ligand superfamily member 2, TNF-a, Cachectin, DIF, TNFA, TNFSF2.;Description:Tumor Necrosis Factor-a Mouse Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single, non glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 157 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 17301.32 Dalton. The TNF-alpha is purified by standard chromatographic techniques.;Source:E.coli;AA Sequence:MLRSSSQNSS DKPVAHVVAN HQVEEQLEWL SQRANALLAN GMDLKDNQLV VPADGLYLVY SQVLFKGQGC PDYVLLTHTV SRFAISYQEK VNLLSAVKSP CPKDTPEGAE LKPWYEPIYL GGVFQLEKGD QLSAEVNLPK YLDFAESGQV YFGVIAL;Purity:Greater than 97.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (c) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.;Bioactivity:The ED50 as determined by the cytolysis of murine L929 cells in the presence of Actinomycin D is < 0.1ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 10,000,000 Units/mg.;Formulation:Lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.2.;Stability:Recombinant Proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70℃;Reconstitution:It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Tumor Necrosis Factor-alpha in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.;Storage:Lyophilized Tumor Necrosis Factor-a although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution TNF-a 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.;
