Alternative names:

Description:

Recombinant Human MELTF Protein with C-terminal 6XHis tag

Background:

The protein encoded by this gene is a cell-surface glycoprotein found on melanoma cells. The protein shares sequence similarity and iron-binding properties with members of the transferrin superfamily. The importance of the iron binding function has not yet been identified. This gene resides in the same region of chromosome 3 as members of the transferrin superfamily. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Molecular characterization:

MELTF(Gly20-Gln708) 6×His tag

Molecular weight:

The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 76.2 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of MELTF-His is approximately 70-100 kDa due to glycosylation.

Tag:

C-6×His Tag

Expression host:

HEK293

Target:

MELTF

Purity:

The purity of the protein is greater than 85% 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.
