Human recombinant BMP-14 (Bone morphogenetic protein-14) protein, AF

Bone Morphogenetic Protein-14 (BMP-14), known as Growth differentiation factor 5 (GDF5), is an extracellular multifunctional cytokine that is also a member of the TGFβ family. BMP-14 can bind with the TGFβ receptor and trigger SMAD protein signal transduction. BMP-14 plays a role in skeletal and joint development and increases the survival of neurons that respond to the neurotransmitter dopamine.

Applications

Cell Culture

Purification

>98% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Endotoxin

<0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.

Bioactivity

Measure by its ability to induce alkaline phosphatase production by ATDC5 cells. The ED50 for this effect is <14 ng/mL.

Form

The protein was lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution containing 20 mM sodium citrate, 0.2 M NaCl, pH 3.5. If you have any concerns or special requirements, please confirm with us.

Reconstitution

Centrifuge at 3000 rpm for 5 mins before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized protein in sterile H2O to a concentration not less than 100 μg/mL and incubate the stock solution at room temperature for at least 20 mins to ensure sufficient re-dissolved. Do Not Vortex! Vigorous shaking may impair the biological activity of the protein.

Molecular Weight

The protein has a calculated MW of 14.52 kDa. The protein migrates as 18 kDa under reducing condition (SDS-PAGE analysis) .

Storage Conditions

Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C for 1 year. Upon reconstitution, store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week. Further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 10%FBS, 5%HSA or 5% trehalose solution), protein aliquots should be stored at -20°C or -80°C for 3-6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
