IELRCRCTNT LSGIPLNSIS RVNVFRPGAH CDNVEVIATL KNGKEVCLDP TAPMIKKIVK KI.
Measured by its ability to chemoattract BaF3 mouse pro-B cells transfected with human CXCR2. The ED50 for this effect is less than 10ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 100,000units/mg.
NAP-2 protein was lyophilized from a 0.2um filtered concentrated solution in 1¡ÁPBS, pH 7.4.
Greater than 97.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized NAP-2 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Lyophilized NAP-2 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18oC. Upon reconstitution CXCL7 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.
