GRO-Alpha Rat Recombinant Protein (CXCL1)

• Description:

  CXCL1 Rat Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 73 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 7.8 kDa. The Rat CXCL1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

• Synonyms:

  Growth-regulated protein alpha; CXCL1; Melanoma growth stimulatory activity; MGSA; Neutrophil-activating protein 3; NAP-3; GRO-alpha (1-73) ; chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1; GRO1; GROa; SCYB1; MGSA-a; MGSA alpha

• Gene Name:

  CXCL1

• UniProt:

  P14095

• Reactivity:

  Rat

• Tissue Specificity:

  At least expressed in the lung and trachea.

• Source:

  Escherichia coli

• Sequence:

  [object Object]

• Bioactivity:

  Determined by its ability to chemoattract rat neutrophils using a concentration range of 10-100ng/ml corresponding to a Specific Activity of 10,000-100,000IU/mg.

• Form:

  Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

• Reconstitution:

  It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized CXCL1 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

• Function:

  Has chemotactic activity for neutrophils. Contributes to neutrophil activation during inflammation.

• Shipping Conditions:

  Available

• Storage Conditions:

  Lyophilized CXCL1 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution CXCL1 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) . Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

• Other Gene Names:

  Growth-regulated alpha protein

• Subcellular Location:

  Secreted.
