Species: Human Expressing host: HEK293 cells Description: Recombinant Human Erythropoietin/EPO Protein is produced by HEK293 cells expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Ala28-Arg193) of human EPO/MVCD2 (Accession #NP_000790.2) fused with a hFc tag at the C-terminus. Tag: C-hFc Purity: > 95% by SDS-PAGE. Endotoxin: Biological Activity: 1.Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized Human EPOR at 1 g/mL (100 L/well) can bind Human EPO with a linear range of 0.24-74.89 ng/mL.
2.Measured in a cell proliferation assay using TF1 human erythroleukemic cells. The ED50for this effect is 2.37-9.48 ng/mL. preparation: Lyophilized from a 0.22 m filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. Storage Store the lyophilized protein at -20C to -80C for long term.
After reconstitution, the protein solution is stable at -20C for 3 months, at 2-8C for up to 1 week.Unopened freeze-dried powder,Store at -20 to -80 °C for twelve months
Redissolution: Centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute to a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/mL in sterile distilled water. Avoid votex or vigorously pipetting the protein. For long term storage, it is recommended to add a carrier protein or stablizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose), and aliquot the reconstituted protein solution to minimize free-thaw cycles.Redissolution:Store at -20 to -80 °C,avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles
Background Information : Human Erythropoietin (EPO) is also known as EP, erythropoetin or erthropoyetin, and is a glycoprotein hormone that controls erythropoiesis, or red blood cell production.It has neuroprotective activity against a variety of potential brain injuries and antiapoptotic functions in several tissue types. Erythropoietin is the principal hormone involved in the regulation of erythrocyte differentiation and the maintenance of a physiological level of circulating erythrocyte mass. It is produced by kidney or liver of adult mammals and by liver of fetal or neonatal mammals. Genetic variation in erythropoietin is associated with susceptbility to microvascular complications of diabetes type 2. These are pathological conditions that develop in numerous tissues and organs as a consequence of diabetes mellitus. They include diabetic retinopathy, diabetic nephropathy leading to end-stage renal disease, and diabetic neuropathy. Diabetic retinopathy remains the major cause of new-onset blindness among diabetic adults. It is characterized by vascular permeability and increased tissue ischemia and angiogenesis. It has a longer circulating half-life in vivo. Erythropoietin is being much misused as a performance-enhancing drug in endurance athletes. GeneID 2056 Swiss Prot P01588 Alias: EPO;EP;MVCD2MedChemExpress (MCE) recombinant proteins include: cytokines, enzymes, growth factors, hormones, receptors, transcription factors, antibody fragments, etc. They are often essential for supporting cell growth, stimulating cell signaling pathways, triggering or inhibiting cell differentiation; and are useful tools for elucidating protein structure and function, understanding disease onset and progression, and validating pharmaceutical targets. At MedChemExpress (MCE), we strive to provide products with only the highest quality. Protein identity, purity and biological activity are assured by our robust quality control and assurance procedures.
