Recombinant Human BD-1重组人β防御素1

Description :
FAQ COA 已发表文献 Defensins (alpha and beta) are cationic peptides with a broad spectrum of antimicrobial activity that comprise an important arm of the innate immune system.The -defensins are distinguished from the -defensins by the pairing of their three disulfide bonds. To date, six human -defensins have been identified; BD-1, BD-2, BD-3, BD-4, BD-5 and BD-6. -defensins are expressed on some leukocytes and at epithelial surfaces. In addition to their direct antimicrobial activities, they can act as chemoattractants towards immature dendritic cells and memory T cells. The -defensin proteins are expressed as the C-terminal portion of precursors, and are released by proteolytic cleavage of a signal sequence and, in some cases, a propeptide sequence. -defensins contain a six-cysteine motif that forms three intra-molecular disulfide bonds. Recombinant Human BD-1 is a 5.0 kDa protein containing 47 amino acid residues.

Biological Activity Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biological activity determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using CD34+dendritic cells is in a concentration range of 100.0-1000.0 ng/ml. Endotoxin EUper 1g of the protein by the LAL method. Formulation Lyophilized from a 0.2 m filtered concentrated solution in 20 mM PB, pH 7.4, 130 mM NaCl. Reconstitution We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at -20 C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
