ALX-201-451-C050	50 µg	693.00 USD

Product Specification

Alternative Name:	Complement C1q tumor necrosis factor-related protein 5, C1qTNF5

Endotoxin Content:	<1.0EU/µg purified protein (LAL test)

Purity:	≥90% (SDS-PAGE)

Formulation:	Lyophilized from a 0.2μm-filtered solution in 55mM TRIS-Cl, pH 8.2, containing 150mM sodium chloride.

Source/Host:	Produced in E. coli. The mature peptide of human CTRP5 (aa 16-243) is fused at the N-terminus to a His-tag.

Reconstitution:	Reconstitute in an appropriate buffer.

Long Term Storage:	-20°C

Use/Stability:	Working aliquots are stable for up to 3 months when stored at -20°C.

Handling:	After reconstitution, prepare aliquots and store at -20°C. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.

Miscellaneous/General:	CTRP5 is a member of the CTRP familly designated as C1q tumor necrosis factor-related proteins. The CTRPs are paralogs of the adiponectin protein characterized by an N-termius variable region and C-terminal globular domain (C1q). CTRP5 is a putative secreted protein. A mutation in CTRP5 gene has been genetically linked to the Late-onset retinal degeneration (L-ORD) disease wich lead to severe visual loss.

Background / Technical Information:	UniProt ID Q9BXJ0: Complement C1q tumor necrosis factor-related protein 5 (human)

Figure 2: CTRP5 (human) (rec.) (His) (Prod. No. ALX-201-451) activates AMPK signaling pathway in rat L6 myoblasts. Method: Differentiated rat L6 myoblasts were stimulated with control buffer or 0.5ug/ml CTRP5 (human) (rec.) (His) for 30min. The cell lysate was subjected to immunoblotting with antibodies against pAMPK and total AMPK.
