Description
Data Sheet
| Description | VCAM1 Human Recombinant is expressed in E. coli containing 674 amino acids (a.a. 25-698) fused to an amino terminal hexahistidine tag, having a total MW of 78.8kDa. |
| Expression host | Escherichia Coli. |
| Formulation | VCAM1 is supplied in 10mM Tris-HCl (pH 8), 250mM NaCl, 0.5mM DTT, 1.5mM Cysteine, and 50% Glycerol. |
| Protein Background | VCAM1 is a member of the Ig superfamily. It is a cell surface sialoglycoprotein expressed by cytokine activated endothelium. VCAM-1 contains 6 or 7 immunoglobulin domains, and is expressed on both large and small vessels only after the endothelial cells are stimulated by cytokines. The protein has a number of functions including the regulation of leukocyte migration, leukocyte endothelial cell adhesion and signal transduction and may play a role in a number of inflammatory diseases (artherosclerosis and rheumatoid arthritis). |
| Purity | Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
