Alternative names:

GPIIA;CD29;VLA-4 subunit beta

Description:

Recombinant human ITGB1 protein with C-terminal human Fc tag

Background:

Integrins are heterodimeric proteins made up of alpha and beta subunits. At least 18 alpha and 8 beta subunits have been described in mammals. Integrin family members are membrane receptors involved in cell adhesion and recognition in a variety of processes including embryogenesis, hemostasis, tissue repair, immune response and metastatic diffusion of tumor cells. This gene encodes a beta subunit. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants which encode different protein isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Molecular characterization:

ITGB1(Gln21-Asp728) hFc(Glu99-Ala330)

Molecular weight:

The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 104.5 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of ITGB1-hFc is approximately 130-250 kDa due to glycosylation.

Tag:

C-Human Fc Tag

Expression host:

HEK293

Target:

ITGB1

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.
