Human EGFL6 / EGF-L6 Protein (His Tag)

MAEG,W80

Catalog Number P10867-H08B
Organism Species Human
Host Baculovirus-Insect Cells
Synonyms MAEG,W80
Molecular Weight The secreted recombinant human EGFL6 consists of 542 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 60.5 KDa. The apparent molecular mass of the protein is approximately 62 KDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions due to glycosylation.
predicted N Asn 22
SDS-PAGE
Purity > 60 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Protein Construction A DNA sequence encoding the human EGFL6 (NP_056322.2)(Met1-Asp553) was expressed with a C-terminal polyhistidine tag.
Bio-activity Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to support the adhesion of NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells. When 5 × 10E4 cells/well areadded to EGFL6-His coated plates (1.25μg/mL and 100μL/well),approximately 50-70% will adhere specifically after 30 minutes at 37℃.
Research Area Signaling |Signal Transduction |Metabolism |Types of disease |Metabolism in Obesity
Formulation Lyophilized from sterile 20mM Tris, 500mM NaCl, 10% glycerol, pH 7.4.
1. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose and mannitol are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA.
Background EGFL6, also known as EGF-L6, belongs to the epidermal growth factor (EGF) repeat superfamily. Members of this superfamily are characterized by the presence of EGF-like repeats and are often involved in the regulation of cell cycle, proliferation, and developmental processes. EGFL6 contains a signal peptide, suggesting that it is secreted; an EGF repeat region consisting of 4 complete EGF-like repeats and 1 partial EGF-like repeat, 3 of which have a calcium-binding consensus sequence; an arg-gly-asp integrin association motif; and a MAM domain, which is believed to have an adhesive function. EGFL6 gene is expressed early during development, and its expression has been detected in lung and meningioma tumors.
