CHM-333
Background :
CXCL9 is a chemoattractant for activated T cells and possess angiostatic activity. Both CXCL9 and CXCL10 have been considered as important components for the anti-tumour activities of interferon-gamma (IFNgamma) and interleukin-12 in animal models.
HuMIG is induced in THP-1 cells and in peripheral blood mononuclear cells by interferon-gamma but not by interferon-alpha or by lipopolysaccharide. Analysis of mouse and human genomic DNAs suggested that the Mumig and Humig genes are true mouse-human homologues.
Description :
Recombinant Human MIG (monokine induced by gamma-interferon ) produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 103 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 11700 Dalton.
Recombinant Human MIG is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation:
Lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in water containing no additives.
Solubility:
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized MIG in sterile 18MΩ-cm H
2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Stability:
Lyophilized MIG although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18
0C. Upon reconstitution MIG should be stored at 4
0C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18
0C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity:
Greater than 98.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Anion-exchange FPLC.
(c) Analysis by reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE Silver Stained.
Amino-Acid Sequence :
The sequence of the first five N-terminal amino acids was determined and was found to be, Thr-Pro-Val-Val-Arg.
Dimers and aggregates:
Less than 1% as determined by silver-stained SDS-PAGE gel analysis.
Biological Activity:
ProSpec's MIG is fully biologically active when compared to standard.
The Biological activity is calculated by its ability to chemoattract CXCL9 transfected 293 cells using 10.0-100.0 ng/ml.
Endotoxin:
Less than 0.1 ng/ug (IEU/ug) of Human MIG.
Protein content:
Protein quantitation was carried out by two independent methods:
1. UV spectroscopy at 280 nm .
2. Analysis by RP-HPLC, using a calibrated solution of Human MIG as a Reference Standard.
Usage:
Prospec's products are furnished for LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. The product may not be used as drugs, agricultural or pesticidal products, food additives or household chemicals.
