Biological Activity

Description

Dkk-1 Protein, Mouse (CHO) is shown to be a potent inhibitor of Wnt signaling and member of dickkopf family.

Background

Mature mouse Dkk-1 is a 40 kDa glycosylated protein that shares 86%, 96%, 83% and 82% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with human, rat, rabbit and bovine Dkk-1, respectively. It also shares 41% and 36% aa identity with human Dkk-2 and Dkk-4, respectively[1]. Dkk1 is a secreted Wnt inhibitor and member of a distinct multigene family, this inhibition plays a key role in heart, head and forelimb development during anterior morphogenesis of the embryo[2][3].

Verified Bioactivity

1.The ED50 is <6 μg/mL as measured in stimulation of alkaline phosphatase activity using CCl-226 cells.
2.Measured by its ability to inhibit Wnt3a induced alkaline phosphatase production by C3H10T1/2 cells. The ED50 for this effect is approximately 0.1852 μg/mL in the presence of 10 ng/mL of mouse Wnt3a, corresponding to a specific activity is 5.399×103 units/mg.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized after extensive dialysis against PBS.

Endotoxin Level

<0.2 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 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

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
