RBP4 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, hFc)

Cat. No.: HY-P700437
Handling Instructions

RBP4 Protein transports retinol in blood plasma, delivering it from liver stores to peripheral tissues. Binding to all-trans retinol, it transfers it to STRA6 for efficient cell membrane transport. RBP4 interacts with TTR, preventing kidney filtration, and further supports STRA6 in retinol transport. RBP4 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, hFc) is the recombinant mouse-derived RBP4 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc labeled tag. The total length of RBP4 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, hFc) is 183 a.a., with molecular weight of 50.3 kDa.

Background

RBP4 Protein is a crucial retinol-binding protein responsible for transporting retinol in the blood plasma. It plays a vital role in delivering retinol from the liver stores to the peripheral tissues. RBP4 binds to all-trans retinol and transfers it to STRA6, which facilitates the efficient transport of retinol across the cell membrane. Additionally, RBP4 interacts with TTR, preventing its loss through filtration in the kidney glomeruli. Moreover, RBP4 also interacts with STRA6, further contributing to its role in retinol transport.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

  • Specific Activity Calculator

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
