Human Wnt-7a
Slide this table
| Cat-Nr. | 100-129S |
| Size | 3 µg |
| Price | 95 € |
| Source | HEK 293 cells |
| Formulation | lyophilized |
| Purity Confirmation | > 80% by SDS-PAGE & HPLC analysis |
| Length [aa] | 318 |
| Molecular Weight | 35.5 kDa |
| Endotoxin Levels | < 0.1 ng/µg of protein (<1EU/µg) |
| Biological Activity | Determined by its ability to inhibit Wnt3a induced alkaline phosphatase production in MC3T3-E1 cells. The expected ED50 for this effect is 40-60 ng/ml. |
| Species Reactivity | Human, Chicken |
| Buffer | 10mM Sodium Phosphate, pH 7.5 + 500mM NaCl + 0.5% CHAPS |
| Reconstitution | Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of ≤ 0.2 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C. |
| Stability and Storage | The lyophilized protein is stable at room temperature for 1 month and at 4°C for 3 months. Reconstituted working aliquots are stable for 1 week at 2°C to 8°C and for 3 months at -20°C to -80°C. |
| Synonyms | WNT7A |
| Description | Wnt-7a belongs to the Wnt family of signaling proteins that play a key role in maintaining the integrity of embryonic and adult tissues. It is expressed in placenta, kidney, testis, uterus, fetal lung and fetal and adult brain. Most Wnt proteins can signal though a mechanism called the canonical Wnt pathway, in which Wnt proteins bind to and activate seven-pass transmembrane receptors of the Frizzled family ultimately leading to the disruption of β-Catenin degradation. Intracellular accumulation of β-Catenin increases translocation of the protein into the nucleus where it binds to TCF/LEF transcription factors and induces the expression of numerous genes. Increased Wnt/β-Catenin signaling is associated with tumorigenesis in a diverse set of human cancers. However, Wnt-7a/Frizzled-9 signaling has been shown to act as a tumor suppressor in non-small cell lung cancers. Recombinant human Wnt-7a is a 35.5 kDa glycoprotein containing 318 amino acids. Due to glycosylation, Wnt-7a migrates between 40-55 kDa by SDS-PAGE gel under unreduced conditions. |
