|
Purity |
> 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE |
Endotoxin Level |
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Biological Activity |
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized GDF15, His, Human at 0.5μg/ml (100μl/well) on the plate can bind Human GFRAL, hFc Tag. Test result was comparable to standard batch. |
Expression System |
E.coli |
Theoretical Molecular Weight |
13.5 kDa |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
The protein migrates to 15-16 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in 50mM HAc (pH 2.9). |
Reconstitution |
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 50mM HAc (pH 2.9). |
Storage & Stability |
Upon receiving, the product remains stable up to 6 months at -20 °C or below. Upon reconstitution, the product should be stable for 3 months at -80 °C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |

Immobilized GDF15, His, Human, His Tag at 0.5 μg/ml (100 μl/well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Human GFRAL, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 14.0 ng/ml determined by ELISA.

GDF15, His, Human on Bis-Tris PAGE under reduced (R) condition and Non reducing (N) condition. The purity is greater than 95%.

Human GFRAL, hFc Tag captured on CM5 Chip via Protein A can bind GDF15, His, Human, His Tag with an affinity constant of 0.014 nM as determined in SPR assay (Biacore T200).
Target Background |
Growth Differentiation Factor 15 (GDF15), also known as NSAID activated gene-1 (NAG-1), is associated with a large number of biological processes and diseases, including cancer and obesity. GDF15 is synthesized as pro-GDF15, is dimerized, and is cleaved and secreted into the circulation as a mature dimer GDF15. |
