MBP Control protein

Store vial at -20 °C prior to opening. Aliquot contents and freeze at -20 °C or below for extended storage. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing. Centrifuge product if not completely clear after standing at room temperature. This product is stable for several weeks at 4 °C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use.

Maltose-Binding Protein is suitable for use as a control in many assays including affinity purification, western blot and other biological assays. Optimal concentration should be determined by the researcher. Expect MW of MBP~51kDa consisting of multiple cloning sites from vector (MCS) and the MBP; molecular weight of MBP at ~40kDa. Maltose-Binding Protein has been tested in SDS-page and western blot.
