Alternative names:

CT12.1;CT12.1A;CTP9;GAGED2;XAGE1

Description:

Recombinant Human XAGE1A Protein with N-terminal human Fc tag

Background:

This gene is a member of the XAGE subfamily, which belongs to the GAGE family. The GAGE genes are expressed in a variety of tumors and in some fetal and reproductive tissues. This gene is strongly expressed in Ewing's sarcoma, alveolar rhabdomyosarcoma and normal testis. The protein encoded by this gene contains a nuclear localization signal and shares a sequence similarity with other GAGE/PAGE proteins. Because of the expression pattern and the sequence similarity, this protein also belongs to a family of CT (cancer-testis) antigens. Alternative splicing of this gene, in addition to alternative transcription start sites, results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2010]

Molecular characterization:

hFc(Glu99-Ala330) XAGE1A(Met1-Val81)

Molecular weight:

The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 35.2 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of hFc-XAGE1A is approximately 35-55 kDa due to glycosylation.

Tag:

N-Human Fc Tag

Expression host:

HEK293

Target:

XAGE1A

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.
