|
Source |
Human GDF-15 Protein is expressed from E. coli.It contains Ala197-Ile308 |
|
Molecular Weight |
Predicted molecular mass of approximately 12 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing condition. |
|
Biological Activity |
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When rHuGDF-15/MIC-1 is used at 0.5 µg/mL, the concentration of Recombinant Human Activin RIB/ALK-4 Fc Chimera that produces 50% of the optimal binding response is approximately 0.5-3 μg/mL. |
|
Purity |
> 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
|
Endotoxin |
<0.1 EU per 1μg of the protein by the LAL method. |
|
Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.2 µm filtered concentrated solution in 4 mM HCl. |
|
Reconstitution |
