Alternative names:

CEACAM-5;D66e;EA;econium antigen 100

Description:

Recombinant human CEACAM5 protein with C-terminal 6×His tag

Background:

This gene encodes a cell surface glycoprotein that represents the founding member of the carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) family of proteins. The encoded protein is used as a clinical biomarker for gastrointestinal cancers and may promote tumor development through its role as a cell adhesion molecule. Additionally, the encoded protein may regulate differentiation, apoptosis, and cell polarity. This gene is present in a CEA family gene cluster on chromosome 19. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Molecular characterization:

CEACAM5(Lys35-Ala685) 6×His tag

Molecular weight:

The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 72.2 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of CEACAM5-His is approximately 100-130 kDa due to glycosylation.

Tag:

C-6×His Tag

Expression host:

HEK293

Target:

CEACAM5

Purity:

The purity of the protein is greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining.

Formulation / Reconstitution:

Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8% trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization. Please see Certificate of Analysis for specific instructions of reconstitution.

Storage:

Store at -20°C to -80°C for 12 months in lyophilized form. After reconstitution, if not intended for use within a month, aliquot and store at -80°C (Avoid repeated freezing and thawing). Lyophilized proteins are shipped at ambient temperature.
