Mouse EPOR Protein (His Tag)

Epor

Catalog Number P50031-M08H
Organism Species Mouse
Host Human Cells
Synonyms Epor
Molecular Weight The recombinant mouse EPOR comprises 236 amino acids with a predicted molecular mass of 26.2 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent mplecular mass of rmEPOR is approximately 30-35 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
predicted N Ala 25
SDS-PAGE
Purity > 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Protein Construction A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain of mouse EPOR (NP_034279.3) (Met 1-Pro 249) was expressed, with a C-terminal polyhistidine tag.
Bio-activity 1. Measured by its ability to inhibit EPO-dependent proliferation of TF-1 human erythroleukemic cells.
The ED50 for this effect is typically 0.1-0.5 μg/mL in the presence of 16 ng/mL Recombinant mouse EPO.
2. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA.
3. Immobilized mouse EPOR-His at 10μg/mL (100μL/well) can bind biotinylated mouse EPO-His (P51099-M08H).
The EC50 of biotinylated mouse EPO-His (P51099-M08H) is 34.5-80.6ng/mL.

Formulation Lyophilized from sterile PBS, 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 Erythropoietin (EPO) is the major glycoprotein hormone regulator of mammalian erythropoiesis, and is produced by kidney and liver in an oxygen-dependent manner. The biological effects of EPO are mediated by the specific erythropoietin receptor (EPOR/EPO Receptor) on bone marrow erythroblasts, which transmits signals important for both proliferation and differentiation along the erythroid lineage. EPOR protein is a type â…  single-transmembrane cytokine receptor, and belongs to the homodimerizing subclass which functions as ligand-induced or ligand-stabilized homodimers. EPOR signaling prevents neuronal death and ischemic injury. Recent studies have shown that EPO and EPOR protein may be involved in carcinogenesis, angiogenesis, and invasion.
