Flt3 Ligand Sf9 Recombinant Protein

Source : Baculovirus Sf9 cells. Flt3-Ligand Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 insect cells is a glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 155 amino acids and having migrating on SDS-PAGE at 19kDa. Flt3-Ligand is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. FLT3 ligand is a receptor for the fl cytokine has a tyrosine-protein kinase activity & a growth factor that regulates proliferation of early hematopoietic cells. Flt3-Ligand synergizes with other CSFs and interleukins to induce growth and differentiation.

Product Specifications

Product Name Alternative

Fms-related tyrosine kinase 3 ligand||FLK2||STK1||CD135||Stem Cell Tyrosine Kinase 1||FLT3LG||Flt3.

Purification

Greater than 95.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

Components

The protein was lyophilized with no additives.

Storage Conditions

Lyophilized Flt3-Ligand although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution Flt3-L should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) .Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

Applications Notes

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Flt3-Ligand in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100μg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. The ED50, calculated by the dose-dependent stimulation of the proliferation of human MUTZ-2 cells is < 3.0 ng/ml.
