Purity |
> 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE |
Endotoxin Level |
Less than 1 EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Expression System |
HEK293 |
Theoretical Molecular Weight |
117.9 kDa (ITGA6) and 83.2 kDa (ITGB1) |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 140-160 kDa (ITGA6) and 110-150 kDa (ITGB1) under Non reducing (N) condition based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). |
Reconstitution |
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. |
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. |
Target Background |
Integrin alpha-6/beta-1 (ITGA6:ITGB1) is a receptor for laminin on platelets. Integrin alpha-6/beta-1 (ITGA6:ITGB1) is present in oocytes and is involved in sperm-egg fusion. Integrin alpha-6/beta-4 (ITGA6:ITGB4) is a receptor for laminin in epithelial cells and it plays a critical structural role in the hemidesmosome (By similarity). ITGA6:ITGB4 binds to NRG1 (via EGF domain) and this binding is essential for NRG1-ERBB signaling |
