Product Specification
| Alternative Name: | Adipocyte complement related protein of 30kDa, ACRP30, AdipoQ, apM1, GBP28 |
| |
| Concentration: | 0.4mg/ml |
| |
| Endotoxin Content: | <0.1EU/µg protein (LAL test; Bio Whittaker). |
| |
| Purity: | ≥90% (SDS-PAGE) |
| |
| Formulation: | Liquid. 0.2µm-filtered solution in 30mM TRIS, pH 8.5. |
| |
| Biological Activity: | Induces the phosphorylation of acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC) in C2C12 cells. Activates AMPK in HUVEC cells in a PI(3)K-independent way. |
| |
| Source/Host: | Produced in HEK 293 cells. The globular domain of human adiponectin (aa 104-244) is fused at the N-terminus to a FLAG®-tag. |
| |
| Long Term Storage: | -20°C |
| |
| Use/Stability: | Working aliquots are stable for up to 3 months when stored at -20°C. |
| |
| Handling: | After opening, prepare aliquots and store at -20°C. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles. |
| |
| Background / Technical Information: | UniProt ID Q15848: Adiponectin (human)

ALX-201-305).
Figure 2: Effect of human adiponectin (globular domain) on the phosphorylation of AMPK in HUVEC cells.
Method: HUVEC cells were treated with human adiponectin (globular domain) (Prod. No.
ALX-210-305). AMPK is activated with a maximal activity at 40 min. This phosphorylation is PI(3)K-independent, as LY294002 (Prod. No.
ALX-270-038) and wortmannin (Prod. No.
ALX-350-020) cannot inhibit the phosphorylation.
