Product Overview
Tag | His |
Host Species | Human |
Accession | NP_008967.1 |
Synonym | endocan |
Background | ESM1 is a secreted protein which is produced by adipocytes. It has been noticed that ESM1 may play some role in obesity-associated vascular disease since circulating ESM-1 levels are reduced in the overweight and obese. ESM1 is mainly expressed in the endothelial cells in human lung and kidney tissues. The expression of ESM1 gene is regulated by cytokines, suggesting that it may play a role in endothelium-dependent pathological disorders. Recently, ESM1 has been described as a specific biomarker of tip cells during neoangiogenesis. Its expression has been shown to be increase in presence of pro-angiogenic growth factors such as VEGF or FGF-2. In hypervascularized cancers, overexpression of endocan has been detected by immunohistochemistry using monoclonal antibodies against ESM1. |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the human ESM1 (NP_008967.1) (Met1-Arg184) was expressed with a C-terminal His tag. |
Source | Baculovirus-Insect Cells |
Predicted N Terminal | Trp 20 |
AA Sequence | Met1-Arg184 |
Molecular Weight | The secreted recombinant human ESM1 consists of 176 a.a. and predicts a molecular mass of 19.6 KDa. The apparent molecular mass of the protein is approximately 23-27 KDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions. |
Purity | >95% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method |
Bioactivity | Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to support the adhesion of Jurkat human acute T cell leukemia cells.When 8 x 104 cells/well are added to ESM1-His coated plates (10ug/mL, 100 uL/well), approximately 48% will adhere after 30 minutes at 37°C. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile 20mM Tris, 500mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, pH 8.0.. |
Stability | The recombinant proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70°C. |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Store the protein under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
