Recombinant Human SEMA5A (C-6His)

Semaphorin-5A (SEMA5A) is a member of the Semaphorin family of axon guidance molecules. SEMA5A is a 140 kDa protein. Class 5 Semaphorins are type I transmembrane glycoproteins with an N- terminal Sema domain and multiple juxtamembrane type 1 Thrombospondin (TSP) repeats within their extracellular domains. SEMA5A is expressed in neuroepithelial cells surrounding retinal axons, oligodendrocytes, the base of limb buds, the mesoderm surrounding cranial vessels , and the cardiac atrial septum and endocardial cushions, Human SEMA5A cDNA encodes a signal sequence, a extracellular domain (ECD), a transmembrane sequence and an cytoplasmic portion. SEMA5A mutations have been implicated in the genetic syndrome, cri-du-chat, while some polymorphisms may increase risk for neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson. The expression of SEMA5A may be upregulated in metastatic cancer cells and downregulated in autism.

Always centrifuge tubes before opening.Do not mix by vortex or pipetting.It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100μg/ml.Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Store at -70°C/-20°C, stable for 6 months after receipt.Store at ≤-70°C, stable for 3 months under sterile conditions after opening. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Recombinant Human Semaphorin 5A is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Glu23-Thr765 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.
