Description
CXCL12 is belonging to the CXC chemokine family. SDF1 alpha and SDF1 beta cDNAs encode precursor proteins of 89 and 93 amino acid residues, respectively. SDF-1 is highly conserved between species, mouse CXCL12α shares approximately 93% amino acid sequence identity with human CXCL12α. CXCL12 is strongly chemotactic for T-lymphocytes, monocytes, but not neutrophils. Contrast to SDF-1β, SDF-1α is shorter by four amino acids at the C-terminal tail.

Reconstitution |
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1% BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20℃. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions. |
Shipping and Storage
The products are shipped with ice pack and can be stored at -20℃ for 1 year.
1 month, 2 to 8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
3 months, -20 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities when first used and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Cautions
