Product Name | Recombinant Human OSM (N-6His) | Accesstion Number | P13725 |
Alternative Names | Oncostatin-M; OSM | ||
Description | Recombinant Human Oncostatin M is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Ala26-Arg221 is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus. | ||
Calculated Molecular Weight | Mol Mass:24.44 KDa; APMol Mass:28 KDa, reducing conditions | Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20mMTris-HCl, 1mM EDTA, 200mM NaCl, pH 7.5. |
Endotoxin | < 0.01 EU/µg as determined by LAL test. | Purity | Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. (QC verified) |
Biological Activity | Measured by the dose-dependent stimulation of TF-1 cells. The ED50 for this effect is 0.2-1 ng/ml. (QC verified) | ||
Reconstitution | Always centrifuge tubes before opening.Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100μg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. | ||
Storage | Lyophilized protein should be stored at ≤ -20°C, stable for one year after receipt. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 2-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at ≤ -20°C for 3 months. | ||
Shipping | The product is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature listed below. | ||
Background | Oncostatin M (OSM) is a glycoprotein belonging to the interleukin-6 family of cytokines that includes leukemia-inhibitory factor, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor, and interleukin 6. OSM encodes a growth regulator, which Inhibits the proliferation of a number of tumor cell lines. It stimulates proliferation of AIDS-KS cells. OSM regulates cytokine production, including IL-6, G-CSF and GM-CSF from endothelial cells. OSM is considered as a pleiotropic cytokine that initiates its biological activities through specific cell surface receptors. The low affinity LIF receptor that shares the similarity of containing protein gp130 has now been identified to be a component of a high- affinity OSM receptor that will transduce OSM signals. OSM has also been shown to play a role in both pro and anti-inflammatory actions. OSM may also be involved in many biometabolism processes including liver development, haematopoeisis, inflammation, bone formation and destruction and possibly CNS development. |
