Recombinant Human MIP-3/CCL23 (rHu MIP-3/CCL23)

SKU: orb1494947

Description

MIP-3/CCL23 is a CC chemokine that signals through the CCR1 receptor. MIP-3 chemoattracts monocytes, resting T-lymphocytes and neutrophils, but does not chemoattract activated lymphocytes. Additionally, MIP-3 has been shown to inhibit colony formation of bone marrow myeloid immature progenitors. Alternative splicing of the MPIF1 gene results in two mRNAs that encode a short (CKβ8) and a long (CKβ81) isoform of the chemokine. CKβ8 cDNA encodes a 120 amino acid (aa) residue precursor protein with a putative 21 aa residue signal peptide that is cleaved to generate a 99 aa residue mature CKβ8 (aa 22 120). Additional N terminal processing of the 99 aa residue variant can generate a 75 aa residue CKβ8 (aa 46 120) that is significantly more active than the 99 aa residue variant.

Images & Validation

−

Application Notes	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.

Storage & Handling

−

Storage	This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8°C, but should be kept at -20°C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one week at 2-8°C. For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20°C to -70°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Form/Appearance	Lyophilized from a 0.2mm filtered concentrated solution in 20mM PB, pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl.
Buffer/Preservatives	Lyophilized from a 0.2mm filtered concentrated solution in 20mM PB, pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl.
