Recombinant Human Homeobox Protein OTX2 (C-6His)

Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks.
Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7C for 2-7 days.
Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20C for 3 months.

Recombinant Human Homeobox Protein OTX2 is produced by our E.coli expression system & the target gene encoding Met1-Leu297 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.

Homeobox Protein OTX2 is a number of the paired homeobox family of the Bicoid subfamily. OTX2 contains 1 homeobox DNA-binding domain & expresses in brain. OTX2 may play a role in the development of the brain & the sense organs. OTX2 positively regulate of gastrulation & embryonic development. Defects in OTX2 are the cause of microphthalmia syndromic type 5, which is a clinically heterogeneous disorder of eye formation, ranging from small size of a single eye to complete bilateral absence of ocular tissues. It also causes pituitary hormone deficiency combined type 6. Combined pituitary hormone deficiency is defined as the impaired production of growth hormone & one or more of the other five anterior pituitary hormones.

Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 ug/ml.
Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O.
Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
