Alternative names:

R-spondin-1;hRspo1

Description:

Recombinant human RSPO1(21-146) protein with C-terminal human Fc tag

Background:

This gene encodes a secreted activator protein with two cysteine-rich, furin-like domains and one thrombospondin type 1 domain. The encoded protein is a ligand for leucine-rich repeat-containing G-protein coupled receptors (LGR proteins) and positively regulates the Wnt signaling pathway. In mice, the protein induces the rapid onset of crypt cell proliferation and increases intestinal epithelial healing, providing a protective effect against chemotherapy-induced adverse effects. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2014]

Molecular characterization:

RSPO1(21-146)(Ser21-Ala146) hFc(Glu99-Ala330)

Molecular weight:

The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 39.9 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of RSPO1(21-146)-hFc is approximately 35-55 kDa due to glycosylation.

Tag:

C-Human Fc Tag

Expression host:

HEK293

Target:

RSPO1

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.
