• UniProt:

  P60022

• Reactivity:

  Human

• Tissue Specificity:

  Plasma.

• Source:

  Escherichia coli

• Sequence:

  [object Object]

• Purification:

  Greater than 98.0% as determined by (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC and (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

• Bioactivity:

  Determined by its ability to chemoattract CD34+ dendritic cells using a concentration range of 100-1000ng/ml corresponding to a specific activity of 1,000-10,000IU/mg.

• Form:

  Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

• Reconstitution:

  It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Beta Defensin-1 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

• Function:

  Has bactericidal activity.

• Shipping Conditions:

  Available

• Storage Conditions:

  Lyophilized Beta Defensin-1 Recombinant although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution BD-1 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

• Other Gene Names:

  Beta-defensin 1
