Theoretical Molecular Weight |
60.39 kDa |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 80-110 kDa 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. |

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 |
Zinc transporter ZIP6 (SLC39A6) or LIV-1 is a protein that belongs to a subfamily of proteins group that displays structural specifications of zinc transporters in the cell membrane. Overexpression of this protein is observed in breast, prostate, and kidney tumor cells. Lately, LIV-1 is a dependable marker for detection of estrogen receptor positive breast cancer, which can be used to detect luminal breast cancer type A. |
