Introduction

IGFBP1 is a member of the insulin-like growth factor binding protein family and encodes a protein with an IGFBP domain and a thyroglobulin type-I domain. The protein binds both insulin-like growth factors I and II and circulates in the plasma. Binding of this protein prolongs the half-life of the IGFs and alters their interaction with cell surface receptors. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.

Description

IGFBP-1 Human Recombinant produced in NS0 is a single, glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 234 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 25kDa.
The IGFBP1 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Source

Mouse myeloma cell line, NS0.

Physical Appearance

Sterile Filtered White lyophilized powder.

Formulation

IGFBP-1 protein was lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in PBS.

Solubility

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized IBP-1 in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Stability

Lyophilized IGFBP1 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C.
Upon reconstitution IGF-BP1 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 .
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Purity

Greater than 95.0% as determined by -PAGE.
