Ferritin heavy chain/FTH1 Protein, Human

Cat. No.: HY-P70246
COA Handling Instructions

The ferritin heavy chain/FTH1 protein is critical for maintaining iron homeostasis, storing iron in soluble form through ferroxidase activity. It promotes the oxidation of ferrous iron so that it can be deposited in the form of iron hydroxide. Ferritin heavy chain/FTH1 Protein, Human is the recombinant human-derived Ferritin heavy chain/FTH1 protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free. The total length of Ferritin heavy chain/FTH1 Protein, Human is 183 a.a., with molecular weight of ~22.34 kDa.

Description

The ferritin heavy chain/FTH1 protein is critical for maintaining iron homeostasis, storing iron in soluble form through ferroxidase activity. It promotes the oxidation of ferrous iron so that it can be deposited in the form of iron hydroxide. Ferritin heavy chain/FTH1 Protein, Human is the recombinant human-derived Ferritin heavy chain/FTH1 protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free. The total length of Ferritin heavy chain/FTH1 Protein, Human is 183 a.a., with molecular weight of ~22.34 kDa.

Background

Ferritin heavy chain/FTH1 protein serves a crucial role in iron homeostasis by storing iron in a soluble and non-toxic form. With ferroxidase activity, it facilitates the oxidation of ferrous iron, allowing its deposition as ferric hydroxides. Beyond iron storage, this protein also contributes to the delivery of iron to cells, emphasizing its multifaceted function. Moreover, FTH1 is implicated in mediating iron uptake in capsule cells during kidney development, further highlighting its significance in various physiological processes.

Molecular Weight

Approximately 22.34 kDa

Purity
  • Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20 mM PB, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.4.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.

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.

  • Dilution Calculator

  • 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
