Description

Introduction
Amphiregulin (AREG) belongs to the EGF family of cytokines that contain 10 proteins such as EGF, TGFb, HBEGF, and the various heregulins. These cytokines are synthesized as transmembrane precursors and are categorized by the presence of one or several EGF structural units in their extracellular domain. The soluble forms of these cytokines are released by proteolytic cleavage. Initially, Amphiregulin (AREG) was isolated from the conditioned media of a PMA treated MCF 7 human breast carcinoma cell line. Multiple forms of native AR containing either 78 or 84 amino acid residues and both N and O-linked oligosaccharides have been found. Amphiregulin (AREG) mRNA expression can be identified in several carcinoma cell lines and the epithelial cells of numerous human tissues such as colon, stomach, breast, ovary, kidney, etc.

BP002466-CYT-041: Recombinant Human Amphiregulin (AREG) Protein

Source: E. coli-derived.
A single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 98 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 11.3 KDa.
Determined by its ability to stimulate the proliferation of mouse Balb/c 3T3 cells. The expected ED50 for this effect is 5-10 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of 100,000-200,000 units/mg.
Purity: > 95.0% by HPLC and SDS-PAGE.
Formulation: Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH7.4.
Reconstitution: It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized AREG in sterile 18 M?-cm H2O not less than 100 ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Shipping: The product is shipped with ice pack. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature recommended below.
Stability & Storage: Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70°C as supplied.
1 month, 2 to 8°C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
3 months, -20 to -70°C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
