Complement C5/C5a Protein, Mouse

Complement C5/C5a Protein, Mouse is a recombinant mouse complement component 5a (C5a). C5a is a potent pro-inflammatory mediator and acts as an essential part of the innate immune response^[1].

Complement component 5a (C5a), a 74 amino acid glycoprotein, is a potent pro-inflammatory mediator cleaved enzy matically from its precursor, C5, upon activation of the complement cascade^[1].

Approximately 12.0 kDa

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

Lyophilized powder.

Lyophilized after extensive dialysis against 20 mM PB, 350 mM NaCl, pH 7.5.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

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).

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.

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
