Product Overview
Tag | N/A |
Host Species | Human |
Synonym | Melanoma-derived growth regulatory protein precursor, Cartilage-derived retinoic acid-sensitive protein, CD-RAP, MIA. |
Background | The Melanoma Inhibitory protein (MIA) was identified as an inhibitor of in vitro growth of malignant melanoma cells. The protein contains a SH3 domain. MIA acts as a potent tumor cell growth inhibitor for malignant melanoma cells and some other neuroectodermal tumors, including gliomas, in an autocrine fashion. In a study of human melanoma cell lines with different metastatic capacity MIA mRNA expression appeared to be inversely correlated with pigmentation. MIA has been shown to represent a very sensitive and specific serum marker for systemic malignant melanoma that might be useful for staging of primary melanomas, detection of progression from localized to metastatic disease during follow-up, and monitoring therapy of advanced melanomas. |
Description | Melanoma Inhibitory Activity Human Recombinant expressed in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain consisting of 108 amino having a total molecular weight of 12237 Dalton.The MIA is purified by unique purification methods. |
Source | E.coli |
AA Sequence | Agrees with the sequence of native MIA human with an addition N-terminal Methionine residue.MGPMPKLADRKLCADQECSSHPISMAVALQDYMAPDCRFLTIHRGQVVYVFSLKGRGRFLWGGSVQGDYYGDLAARLGYFPSSIVREDQTLKVDVKTDKWDFYCQ. |
Purity | >95.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
Endotoxin | <1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Bioactivity | The biological activity is calculated by the inhibiting effect on the invasion of Mel In Tumor cells and found active in Mel In assay. |
Formulation | The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution containing 20mM Potassium-phosphate pH=7 and 150mM potassium chloride. |
Stability | Recombinant protein is stable for 12 months at -70°C |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Lyophilized MIA although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution MIA should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
