Short Summary : Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-2 Human Recombinant (CCL8)

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

Molecular Weight : 8.9 kDa

Accession Number : P80075

Alternative Name/s : Small inducible cytokine A8, CCL8, Monocyte chemotactic protein 2, MCP-2, Monocyte chemoattractant protein 2, HC14, chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 8, MCP2, SCYA8, SCYA10.

Source : Escherichia Coli.

Amino Acid Sequence/Note: The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be Gln-Pro-Asp-Ser-Val.

Appearance/Format : Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

Storage/Note : Lyophilized MCP2 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution CCL8should 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.

Formulation/Form : The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) sterile solution containing no additives.

Background/Description : Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-2 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a non-glycosylated, Polypeptide chain containing 76 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 8904 Dalton. The MCP2 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
