Leptin Ovine, MTS

Leptin Ovine Recombinant, MTS tag

Leptin Ovine MTS tagged Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 157 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 17.5 kDa.
The Leptin is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. The membrane translocating sequence Tag is composed of 10 amino acids Val-Leu-Leu-Pro-Val-Leu-Leu-Ala-Ala-Pro located at the N-terminus.

Accession

Q28603

Amino acid sequence

The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ala-Val-Pro-Ile-Arg.

Biological Activity

Biological active as evidenced by inducing proliferation of BAF/3 cells stably transfected with the long form of human leptin receptor.

Formulation

The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution with 0.02% NaHCO3.

Physical Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Protein content

Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods
1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.2 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics).
2. Analysis by RP-HPLC,using calibrated solution of Leptin Ovine as a Reference Standard.

Purity

Greater than 98.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by SEC-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Leptin in sterile 0.02% NaHCO3 not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Source

Escherichia Coli.

Stability

Lyophilized Leptin Ovine MTS tagged 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.
