Leptin tA Human, PEG

• Description:

  Pegylated Leptin Antagonist Triple Mutant Human Recombinant is a single non-glycosilated polypeptide chain containing 146 amino and additional Ala at N-terminus acids and having a molecular weight of 35.6kDa, Leptin was mutated, resulting in L39A/D40A/F41A. However due to enlarged hydrodymanic volume it runs on the SDS-PAGE as 48 kDa protein and in gel-filtration on Superdex 200 as over 200 kDa protein. Leptin Antagonist Triple Mutant Human Recombinant is Mono-Pegylated with 20kDa PEG and was purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

• Source:

  Escherichia coli.

• Buffer:

  The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (0.65 mg/mL) solution with 03mM NaHCO3.

• Storage Conditions:

  Lyophilized PEG-SHLA although stable at room temperature for several weeks, should be stored desiccated below - 20C. Upon reconstitution at > 0.1 mg/mL and up to 2 mg/mL of PEG-SHLA and filter sterilization mLEP mutant can be stored at 4C or even room temperature for several weeks making it suitable for long term infusion studies using osmotic pumps. At lower concentration addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is suggested.
