Name :
LGR-5 Protein
Description :
G protein-coupled receptor 5 (LGR5), known as a stem cell marker for colon cancer and gastric cancer, can serve as a novel GSC marker involved in EMT and a therapeutic target in glioma.LGR5 is a new functional GSC marker and prognostic indicator that can promote EMT by activating the Wnt/β-catenin pathway and would thus be a novel therapeutic target for glioma.
Species :
Human
Uniprotkb :
HEK293
Tag :
C-hFc
Synonyms :
G-protein coupled receptor HG38, G-protein coupled receptor 49, GPR67, G-protein coupled receptor 67, LGR5, GPR49, HG38
Construction :
Recombinant Human LGR-5 Protein is expressed from HEK293 with hFc tag at the C-Terminus. It contains Gly22-Pro543.[Accession |O75473-1]
Protein Purity :
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE; > 95% as determined by HPLC
Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 85 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 110-120 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.
Endotoxin :
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.
Formulatione :
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS, 5mM DTT (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.
Reconstitution :
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.
Stability & Storage :
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -20 to -80°C for 3-6 months in unopened state after reconstitution. 2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
Shipping :
In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature.Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise.
