Product Info

• Predicted Species Reactivity: Rabbit
• Product Format: Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
• Host: Escherichia Coli.

  Product Introduction: Tumor necrosis factor is a cytokine involved in systemic inflammation and is a member of a group of cytokines that all stimulate the acute phase reaction. TNF is mainly secreted by macrophages. TNF causes apoptotic cell death, cellular proliferation, differentiation, inflammation, tumorigenesis and viral replication, TNF is also involved in lipid metabolism, and coagulation. TNF's primary role is in the regulation of immune cells. Dysregulation and, in particular, overproduction of TNF have been implicated in a variety of human diseases- autoimmune diseases, insulin resistance, and cancer.
  Product Description: Tumor Necrosis Factor-a Rabbit Recombinant consists of three identical polypeptide chains of 158 amino acids combined to form a compact, bell-shaped homotrimer. TNF-alpha was produced in E.Coli is a non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain having a molecular mass of 17.4 kDa for the individual subunit. The TNF-alpha is purified by standard chromatographic techniques.
• Reconstitution and Storage: Lyophilized Tumor Necrosis Factor-a although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18C. Upon reconstitution TNF-a should be stored at 4C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
• Formulation: TNF-alpha Rabbit was lyophilized after extensive dialysis against 20mM PB, pH7.4, 300mM NaCl.
• Purification: Greater than 95% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
• Purity: Greater than 95% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
• Biological Activity: The ED50 as determined by the cytolysis of murine L929 cells in the presence of Actinomycin D is less than 0.03ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of 30,000,000 IU/mg.
• Peptide Sequence: The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Met-Ser-Ala-Ser-Arg.
