Human CXCL1 Protein, Fc Tag (MALS verified)

Chemokine (C-X-C motif) ligand 1 (CXCL1) is a small molecule of cytokines belonging to the CXC chemokine family. Also known as growth-regulated oncogene alpha (Growth-regulated oncogene alpha, GROα) . It's also known as keratinocytes-derived chemokine (KC) in mice or cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant type-1 (CINC-1) in rats. In humans, this protein is encoded by the gene Cxcl1 and is located on human chromosome 4 among genes for other CXC chemokines. The chemokine CXCL1 is expressed by macrophages, neutrophils and epithelial cells. The chemokine CXCL1 has a chemotactic effect on neutrophils. CXCL1 binds to the chemokine receptor CXCR2 and plays a role in cell chemotaxis. Human CXCL1 is clustered on chromosome 4 adjacent to many CXC chemokine genes. Major roles of CXCL1 include neovascularization, inflammation, wound healing, and tumorigenesis

This protein carries a human IgG1 Fc tag at the C-terminus. The protein has a calculated MW of 34.3 kDa. The protein migrates as 37-43 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

● -20°C to -70°C for 12 months in lyophilized state; ● -70°C for 3 months under sterile conditions after reconstitution. For long term storage, the product should be stored at lyophilized state at -20°C or lower.
