Human Exodus-2 Recombinant

Exodus-2, which is a member of the family of CC- Chemokines, has a unique 36 (murine) or 37 (human) amino acid carboxyl-terminal extension not seen in other chemokines. Exodus-2 selectively stimulates the chemotaxis of adult T-lymphocytes and is expressed preferentially in lymph node tissue. Exodus-2 is critical for adult T-cell adhesion to high endothelial venules in lymph nodes, a rate-limiting step for T-cell trafficking through nodal tissue.

Reconstitute at 0.1-1.0 mg/ml in distilled water. This solution can then be diluted into other buffers. To maximize product collection from vial surface, vortex briefly and then spin down to recollect the liquid.

The lyophilized protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt when stored at -20°C. Upon reconstitution, store in working aliquots at +4°C for up to one month, or at -20°C for up to six months, in the presence of a carrier protein. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
