Description
Data Sheet
| Description | Desmin Human Recombinant having a calculated molecular mass of 53,539 Dalton, showing a 55kDa band on SDS-page, pI-5.16. |
| Expression host | Escherichia Coli. |
| Formulation | Desmin was lyophilized from a 1mg/ml solution containing 30mM Tris-HCl pH 8, 9.5M urea, 2mM DTT, 2mM EDTA and 10mM methylammonium chloride. |
| Product Description | Immunoreactive with sera of EBV-infected individuals. |
| Protein Background | Desmin is a muscle-specific class III intermediate filament. Homopolymers of this protein form a stable intracytoplasmic filamentous network connecting myofibrils to each other and to the plasma membrane. Mutations in this gene are associated with desmin-related myopathy, a familial cardiac and skeletal myopathy (CSM), and with distal myopathies. |
| Purity | Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Reagent Appearance | Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
| Solubility | It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Desmin in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
| Stability | Lyophilized Desmin although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Desmin 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. |
| Synonyms | Desmin, DES, CSM1, CSM2, CMD1I, FLJ12025, FLJ39719, FLJ41013, FLJ41793. |
