Recombinant Mouse MIP-1 Alpha/CCL3 protein

Recombinant Mouse MIP-1 Alpha/CCL3 protein

• Background: CCL3, also known as macrophage inflammatory protein-1α (MIP-1α), is a cytokine belonging to the CC chemokine family that is involved in the acute inflammatory state in the recruitment and activation of polymorphonuclear leukocytes. Studies showed CCL3 can bind to CCR1, CCR4 and CCR5. MIP-1α can induce a dose-dependent inhibition of different strains of HIV-1, HIV-2, and simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV). Recombinant Mouse MIP-1α is a 7.9 kDa protein containing 69 amino acid residues, including the four highly conserved cysteine residues present in CC chemokines and it shares approximately 71 % and 91 % amino acid sequence homology with the human and rat protein.
• CAS Number: 9000-83-3
• Reconstitution: Lyophilized from a .2 μm filtered concentrated solution in 2 mM PB, pH 7.4, 15 mM NaCl.
• Molecular Weight: Approximately 7.9 kDa protein containing 69 amino acid residues, including the four highly conserved cysteine residues present in CC chemokines.
