EGFR vIII Protein, Human (HEK293, His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

The EGFRvIII protein is a transmembrane glycoprotein in the protein kinase superfamily that acts as a receptor for epidermal growth factor. It acts on the cell surface, binds to epidermal growth factor, triggers receptor dimerization and tyrosine autophosphorylation, and promotes cell proliferation. EGFR vIII Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived EGFR vIII protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Biological Activity

Description

The EGFRvIII protein is a transmembrane glycoprotein in the protein kinase superfamily that acts as a receptor for epidermal growth factor. It acts on the cell surface, binds to epidermal growth factor, triggers receptor dimerization and tyrosine autophosphorylation, and promotes cell proliferation. EGFR vIII Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived EGFR vIII protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-6*His labeled tag.

Background

The EGFRvIII protein is a transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the protein kinase superfamily and serves as a receptor for members of the epidermal growth factor family. Operating as a cell surface protein, EGFRvIII binds to epidermal growth factor, initiating receptor dimerization and tyrosine autophosphorylation, thereby promoting cell proliferation. Mutations in this gene are associated with lung cancer. Furthermore, EGFRvIII is implicated as a component of the cytokine storm, contributing to the severity of Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2).

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, 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 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.
