Prolactin Ovine Recombinant, Prolactin Ovine, 50ug

CAT No.BT-CYT-240

Prolactin Ovine Recombinant, Prolactin Ovine, 50ug

---

Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Stability
Lyophilized Prolactin although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18¡ãC. Upon reconstitution Prl should be stored at 4¡ãC between 2-7 days and for future use below -18¡ãC.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Amino acid sequence
The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ala-Thr-Pro-Val-Cys-Pro.

Is fully biologically active as evidenced by inducing proliferation of Nb2 cells.

Description
Prolactin Ovine Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 199 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 23 kDa. The Prolactin n is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Formulation
The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution with 0.0045mM NaHCO3.

Protein content
Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods
1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.85 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics).

2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a calibrated solution of Prolactin as a Reference Standard.

Purity
Greater than 98.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by SEC-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Prolactin in sterile 18M¦¸-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Source
Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms
Mammotropin, Luteotropic hormone, Luteotropin, PRL.
