Recombinant Human Erythropoietin-Fc Chimera

Cat No.

RP01852

Product Specifications

Product Type

Recombinant protein

Applications

Bioactivity, Endotoxin

Source

CHO

UniProt No.P01588
Purity

> 98 % by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.

Bioactivity

Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The Specific Activity was measured by the stimulation of reticulocyte production in normocyth-aemic mice and is no less than 5.0 × 105 IU/mg.

Endotoxin

Less than 1 EU/μg of rHuEPO-Fc a as determined by LAL method.

Molecular Weight

Recombinant Human EPO/Fc produced in CHO is a dimeric, glycosylated, polypeptide chain consisting of two mature human EPO molecules linked to the Fc portion of human IgG1. The Fc component contains the CH2 domain, the CH3 domain and hinge region, but not the CH1 domain of IgG1. As a result of glycosylation, the recombinant protein migrates with an apparent molecular mass of 140 kDa in non-reducing SDS-PAGE.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.

Alternative Names

EPOα-Fc, Human

Storage

-20C

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.
