Recombinant Human MAdCAM-1 (C-6His)

Mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) is an approximately 60 kDa type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein. It is an endothelial cell adhesion molecule that belongs to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily of proteins. The Ig domains of MAdCAM-1 are critical to alpha (4) beta (7) binding, and the mucin domain has activity in L Selectin binding. MAdCAM-1 expression is up-regulated by TNF-alpha and IL 1 beta. Mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule (MAdCAM-1) plays a pivotal role in T-lymphocyte homing to the gut. MAdCAM 1 expression is also dramatically increased in chronic inflammatory and disease states, including inflammatory bowel disease (Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis), sclerosing cholangitis, and diabetes, and may play an important role in these conditions.

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 MADCAM1 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Gln19-Gln333 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.
