Description

BMP-12/GDF-7 Protein, existing as a homodimer with disulfide linkages, is hypothesized to influence the motor area of the primate neocortex. Its distinct structural characteristics suggest a unique mode of action, possibly contributing to cellular events integral to motor area function. The precise details of BMP-12/GDF-7 Protein's role in this neural context and its implications in motor-related processes await further research. Animal-Free BMP-12/GDF-7 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived animal-FreeBMP-12/GDF-7 protein, expressed by E. coli , with C-His labeled tag.

Background

BMP-12/GDF-7 Protein is postulated to play an active role, potentially exerting its influence in the motor area of the primate neocortex. Existing as a homodimer with disulfide-linkages, this protein's specific mechanisms and molecular interactions within the motor area remain to be fully elucidated. The distinct structural characteristics of the homodimer suggest a unique mode of action, possibly contributing to cellular events that are integral to the function and regulation of the motor area in the primate neocortex. Further research is warranted to uncover the precise details of BMP-12/GDF-7 Protein's role in this neural context and its potential implications in motor-related processes.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM sodium citrate, 0.2 M NaCl, pH 3.5, trehalose.

Endotoxin Level

<0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is recommended to reconstitute to a concentration of 100-200 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 from date of receipt. 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
