| Cat-Nr. | M10-094 |
| Size | 50 µg |
| Price | 199 € |
| Source | E. coli |
| Formulation | lyophilized |
| Purity Confirmation | > 98% by SDS-PAGE & HPLC analyses |
| Length [aa] | 120 |
| Molecular Weight | 27 kDa |
| Endotoxin Levels | < 0.1 ng/µg of protein (<1EU/µg) |
| Biological Activity | The ED50 was determined by its ability to induce alkaline phosphatase production by ATDC-5 chondrogenic cells is 1.0-2.0 µg/ml. |
| Species Reactivity | Mouse |
| Reconstitution | Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 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 (e.g. PBS) containing a carrier protein (e.g. 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 6 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 | Gdf5; bp; brp; Cdmp-1 |
| Description | GDF-5 is expressed in long bones during embryonic development and postnatally in articular cartilage. Mutations in the GDF-5 gene have been implicated in Grebe Syndrome, which is characterized by short stature, extra digits, short and deformed extremities, and in Hunter-Thompson type dwarfism. The mature and functional form of GDF-5 is a homodimer of two 120 amino-acid polypeptide chain (monomers) linked by a single disulfide bond. Each GDF-5 monomer is expressed as the C-terminal part of a precursor polypeptide, which also contains a 27 amino-acid signal peptide and a 348 amino-acid propeptide. This precursor undergoes intracellular dimerization, and upon secretion it is processed by a furin-type protease. Recombinant murine GDF-5 is a 27.0 kDa homodimeric disulfide-linked protein consisting of two 120 amino acids. |
