Recombinant Human LL-37 protein (GST tag)

N-GST

Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.

32 kDa

Antimicrobial protein that is an integral component of the innate immune system. Binds to bacterial lipopolysaccharides (LPS). Acts via neutrophil N-formyl peptide receptors to enhance the release of CXCL2. Postsecretory processing generates multiple cathelicidin antimicrobial peptides with various lengths which act as a topical antimicrobial defense in sweat on skin. The unprocessed precursor form, cathelicidin antimicrobial peptide, inhibits the growth of Gram-negative E.coli and E.aerogenes with efficiencies comparable to that of the mature peptide LL-37 (in vitro).

< 10 EU/mg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.

Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.
Normally 5%-8% trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.
