CD228,MTf

Catalog Number P50994-M02H
Organism Species Mouse
Host Human Cells
Synonyms CD228,MTf
Molecular Weight The secreted recombinant mouse MFI2/Fc is a disulfide-linked homodimer. The reduced monomer comprises 930 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 103 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of rmMFI2/Fc monomer is approximately 100 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
predicted N Val 20
