Biotinylated Mouse Midkine / Mdk Protein, His, Avitag™

Secreted protein that functions as cytokine and growth factor and mediates its signal through cell-surface proteoglycan and non-proteoglycan receptors.Binds cell-surface proteoglycan receptors via their chondroitin sulfate (CS) groups.Thereby regulates many processes like inflammatory response, cell proliferation, cell adhesion, cell growth, cell survival, tissue regeneration, cell differentiation and cell migration. Participates in inflammatory processes by exerting two different activities. Firstly, mediates neutrophils and macrophages recruitment to the sites of inflammation both by direct action by cooperating namely with ITGB2 via LRP1 and by inducing chemokine expression.

This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the N-terminus, followed by an Avi tag (Avitag™) . The protein has a calculated MW of 16.8 kDa. The protein migrates as 20-22 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

● -20°C to -70°C for 12 months in lyophilized state; ● -70°C for 3 months under sterile conditions after reconstitution. For long term storage, the product should be stored at lyophilized state at -20°C or lower.
