Cat#:RP-2277R;Product Name:Recombinant Rat BD 1 Protein;Synonym:Beta-defensin 1, BD-1, rBD-1, Defensin beta 1, Defb1.;Description:BD-1 Rat Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 37 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 4.1kDa. The BD-1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.;Source:E.coli;AA Sequence:DQYRCLQNGG FCLRSSCPSH TKLQGTCKPD KPNCCRS.;Purity:>95.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.;Bioactivity:Measured by its ability to chemoattract CD34+ dendritic cells using a concentration range of 0.1-1.0 ug/ml.;Formulation:BD-1 protein was lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.;Stability:Recombinant Proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70℃;Reconstitution:It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized BD-1 in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.;Storage:Lyophilized BD-1 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution BD-1 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.;
