Reconstitution Instructions
Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.

Background Information
Semaphorins are a large group of structurally related secreted, GPI-anchored and transmembrane cell signaling molecules. There are 8 major classifications (1-7) of Semaphorins characterized by the existence of a conserved 500 amino acid SEMA domain at the amino terminus. Classes 3, 4, 6, and 7 are found in vertebrates only, whilst class 5 is found in both vertebrates and invertebrates. Each class is then divided into additional subgroups based on shared structural characteristics. Semaphorins primarily function as axon growth cone guidance factors during neuronal development. Semaphorin 3A acts as a chemo-repellent to axons, and an inhibitor of the growth of axons by signaling through receptors, Neuropilin-1and Plexin-A. Recombinant human Semaphorin 3A is a 751 amino acid protein containing the SEMA domain, an immunoglobulin c2-like domain and a basic domain (Arg/Lys rich) near the C-terminus.

Properties
Human proteins, cDNA and human recombinants are used in human reactive ELISA kits and to produce anti-human mono and polyclonal antibodies. Modern humans (Homo sapiens, primarily ssp. Homo sapiens sapiens). Depending on the epitopes used human ELISA kits can be cross reactive to many other species. Mainly analyzed are human serum, plasma, urine, saliva, human cell culture supernatants and biological samples.
