Protein Description
Full Length of Mature Protein
Tag Info
Tag-Free
Mol. Weight
16.0 kDa
Biological Activity
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 as determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human Leptin R transfected BaF3 murine proB cells is less than 2 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of ? 5.0 x 105 IU/mg.
Purity
>97% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC.
Endotoxin
Less than 1.0 EU/ug as determined by LAL method.
Storage Buffer
0.2 um filtered PBS, pH 7.4 , lyophilized
Alias
Obese protein,
Relevance
May function as part of a signaling pathway that acts to regulate the size of the body fat depot. An increase in the level of LEP may act directly or indirectly on the CNS to inhibit food intake and/or regulate energy expenditure as part of a homeostatic mechanism to maintain constancy of the adipose mass.
PubMed ID

Function
Key player in the regulation of energy balance and body weight control. Once released into the circulation, has central and peripheral effects by binding LEPR, found in many tissues, which results in the activation of several major signaling pathways
Involvement in disease
Leptin deficiency (LEPD)
Subcellular Location
Secreted
Protein Families
Leptin family
Tissue Specificity
Adipose tissue is the main source of leptin it is also produced by other peripheral tissues such as the skeletal muscle (PubMed:7789654, PubMed:16052473, PubMed:12448771). Expressed by intercalated and striated tracts of submandibular and parotid salivary gland intralobular ducts (PubMed:12448771). Detected by fundic epithelium of the gastric mucosa (PubMed:10896907). Secreted into blood and gastric juice (PubMed:10896907).
