Leptin Mouse, PEG

Pegylated Mouse Leptin Recombinant

Leptin Mono-Pegylated Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 146 amino acids and an additional Ala at N-terminus. Pegylated Mouse Leptin contains PEG 20 kDa at its N-terminus and having a molecular mass of 35.6 kDa as determined by mass spectrometry.
Since its enlarged hydrodymanic volume Pegylated Leptin runs on SDS-PAGE as A 48 kDa protein and in gel-filtration on Superdex 200 as over 100 kDa protein.
Pegylated Mouse Leptin half-life in circulation after SC injection was over 20 hours. Mouse Leptin was purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques according to Salomon et al (2006) Protein Expression and Purification 47, 128-136 and then pegylated.

Accession

P41160

Biological Activity

Pegylated mouse Leptin is capable of stimulatng proliferation of BAF/3 cells stably transfected with the long form of human leptin receptor. Pegylated mouse Leptin in vitro activity is only slightly lower than the non-pegylated antagonist but in vivo it has profound weight reducing effect (as compared to the non-pegylated leptin), resulting mainly from reduced food intake.

Formulation

The mouse Leptin was lyophilized from a concentrated (0.65mg/ml) solution containing 0.003mM NaHCO3.

Physical Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Purity

Greater than 99.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by Gel-Filtration.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Leptin in sterile 0.4% NaHCO3 adjusted to pH-8.5 not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Source

Escherichia Coli.

Stability

Lyophilized Leptin although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18oC. Upon reconstitution Leptin should be stored at 4oC between 2-7 days and for future use below -18oC.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Synonyms

OB Protein, Obesity Protein, OBS, Obesity factor.
