Synonyms:
BMP4, ZYME, BMP2B, BMP2B1.
Description:
Bone Morphogenetic Protein-4 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a monomeric, non-glycosylated, Polypeptide chain containing 116 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 13009 Dalton.
The BMP-4 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source:
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation:
BMP-4 was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution containing no additives.
Solubility:
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Bone Morphogenetic Protein-4 in sterile 20mM AcOH (acetic Acid) not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Stability:
Lyophilized Bone Morphogenetic Protein-4 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution BMP4 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity:
Greater than 95.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Amino acid sequence:
The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Ser-Pro-Lys-His-His.
Applications:
1. Molecular standard (Western, ELISA) in studying secreted BMP-4.
2. Preparing antibodies for BMP-4 monomer.
3. Molecule standard in detecting secreted BMP-4 in reduced SDS-PAGE.
Usage:
ProteinTools products are furnished for LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. The product may not be used as drugs, agricultural or pesticidal products, food additives or household chemicals.
