Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2/BMP-2

Source: E.coli. MW :13.3kD. Recombinant Human Bone Morphogenetic Protein 2 is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Gln283-Arg396 is expressed. Bone Morphogenetic Protein-2 (BMP-2) is one of the bone-growth regulatory factors that belong to the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily of proteins. BMPs are synthesized as large precursor molecules, which are cleaved by proteolytic enzymes. The active form of BMP-2 can consist of a dimer of two identical proteins or a heterodimer of two related bone morphogenetic proteins.

Components

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 50mM HAc .

Shipping Conditions

The product is shipped at ambient temperature.

Storage Conditions

Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at -20°C for 3 months.

Applications Notes

Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 50mM Acetic acid. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. Endotoxin : Less than 0.1 ng/μg (1 IEU/μg) as determined by LAL test. Biological Activity : ED50 is less than 50 ng/ml. Specific Activity of 2.0 x 10^4 IU/mg
