• Tag: N-terminal 10xHis-tagged and C-terminal Myc-tagged
• Source: Mammalian cell
• Field of Research: Cell Biology
• Assay Type: Active Protein & In Stock Protein
• Relevance: Brainstem-restricted receptor for GDF15 which regulates food intake, energy expenditure and body weight in response to metabolic and toxin-induced stresses (PubMed:28953886, PubMed:28846099, PubMed:28846097, PubMed:28846098). Upon interaction with its ligand, GDF15, interacts with RET and induces cellular signaling through activation of MAPK- and AKT- signaling pathways (PubMed:28846098, PubMed:28846099).
• Endotoxin: Less than 1.0 EU/ug as determined by LAL method.
• Purity: Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
• Activity: Yes
• Bioactivity: Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized Mouse Gfral at 5 μg/mL can bind Mouse Gdf15 (CSB-MP859530MO), the EC50 is 7.926-10.52 ng/mL.
• Length: Partial
• Form: Lyophilized powder
• Buffer: Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered 20 mM Tris-HCl, 0.5 M NaCl, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0
• Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20℃/-80℃. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.
