MNOV Recombinant Protein

Source : Escherichia Coli. NOV Mouse Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 333 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 36.4kDa.The NOV is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. Nephroblastoma Overexpressed (NOV) is a member of the CCN family of secreted cysteine rich regulatory proteins. The full length NOV protein is comprised of 4 structural domains, which present distinct, and sometimes opposing, biological activities. An elevated expression of NOV is linked with certain tumors, including Wilm's tumor and most nephroblastomas. On the other hand, in other tumor types and certain cancer cell lines, increased tumorgenicity and proliferation is associated with decreased NOV expression.

Product Specifications

Product Name Alternative

Protein NOV homolog||NovH||CCN family member 3||Nephroblastoma-overexpressed gene protein homolog||Nov||Ccn3||C130088N23Rik.

Purification

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

Components

NOV protein was lyophilized from a 0.2μm filtered concentrated solution in 20mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.5 and 150mM NaCl.

Storage Conditions

Lyophilized NOV although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution NOV 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 NOV in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100μg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. The ED50 as determined by a cell proliferation assay using murine Balb/c 3T3 cells is less than 1.0 Ž1⁄4g/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 1000 IU/mg.
