Description
Vimentins are class-III intermediate filaments found in various non-epithelial cells, especially mesenchymal cells.Human Vimentin shares 97-98% aa identity with mouse, rat, ovine, bovine and canine Vimentin. Vimentin is involved in positioning autophagosomes, lysosomes and the Golgi complex within the cell. Vimentin helps maintain the lipid composition of cellular membranes, and caspase cleavage of Vimentin is a key event in apoptosis.

Reconstitution |
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in 4 mM HCl 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
1.Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
