Leptin Recombinant Protein
Recombinant salamander leptin (Sal-LEP)is a single polypeptide chain containing 146 amino and additional Ala at N-terminus acids and having a molecular mass of ~ 16 kD. Recombinant salamander leptin was purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques, similarly to that described previously by Salomon et al (2006) Protein Expression and Purifcation 47, 128–136.

Salamander
Species Reactivity
Salamander
Detection Range
Recombinant salamander leptin is fully biologically active as evidenced by inducing proliferation of BAF/3 cells stably transfected with the long form of human leptin receptor. The activity of recombinant salamander leptin in that test is similar to that of mouse leptin (see Salomon et al (2006) Protein Expression and Purifcation 47, 128–136).
