Product Name: Growth Hormone Antagonist Chicken Recombinant Synonyms: GH1, GH, GHN, GH-N, hGH-N, Pituitary growth hormone, Growth hormone 1, Somatotropin. Description: Somatotropin Chicken Antagonist Recombinant mutein G119R produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 191 amino acids with an additional Ala at the N-terminus and having a molecular mass of 22.3 kDa. The Chicken Growth-Hormone Antagonist Recombinant is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Uniprot Accesion Number: Amino Acid Sequence:The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ala-Thr-Phe-Pro-Ala. Source: Escherichia Coli. Physical Appearance and Stability: Lyophilized Growth-Hormone Chicken antagonist although stable at room temperature for at least two weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18C. Upon reconstitution and filter sterilization GH can be stored at 4C, pH 9 for up to 4 weeks. For long term storage and more diluted solutions it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. Formulation and Purity: The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution with 0.3% NaHCO3 pH-8. Greater than 98.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by SEC-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. Application: Solubility: It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Growth-Hormone Chicken antagonist in 0.4% NaHCO3 or water adjusted to pH 8-9, not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions, preferably in a presence of a carrier protein such as BSA or similar. Biological Activity: Recombinant Chicken Growth Hormone G119R mutant did not bind to ovine GHR-ECD and was devoid of any biological activity in FDC-P1 3B9 cells. However, in binding experiments that were carried out using chicken liver membranes, both ovine GH and chicken GH showed similar IC50 values in competition with 125I-ovine GH, while the IC50 of G119R mutein was 10-fold higher. These results emphasize the importance of species specificity and indicate the possibility of antagonistic activity of chGH G119R in homologous system. Shipping Format and Condition: Lyophilized powder at room temperature. Usage Statement: Our products are furnished for LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY.
