Osteoprotegerin Human Recombinant /Fc Chimera
Recombinant OPG produced in yeast contains 412 amino acid residues, including 180 residues from mature OPG (a.a 22-201) and 232 residues from the Fc protein of human IgG1, and has a calculated molecular mass of 46.5 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the recombinant Osteoprotegrin migrates as a 49 kDa protein in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
The OPG is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Biological Activity
Determined by its ability to neutralize the stimulation of U937 cells treated with 10ng/ml of soluble RANKL (sRANKL) corresponding to a Specific Activity of 100,000IU/mg.
Formulation
OPG was lyophilized from a 0.2um filtered concentrated (0.5mg/ml) solution in PBS, pH= 7.4.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Purity
Greater than 90.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Osteoprotegerin in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Source
Stability
Lyophilized Osteoprotegerin although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18oC. Upon reconstitution OCIF 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.
