GARP&Latent TGF beta Complex Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His)

GARP/latent TGF-b1 complexes are potent inducers of Th17 differentiation in the presence of exogenous IL-6 and inducers of Treg in the presence of IL-2. GARP&Latent TGF beta Complex Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is a biotinylated recombinant protein (GARP (I18-N628)&TGF-b1 (L30-S390)) produced by HEK293 cells with His tag^[1][2].

GARP/latent TGF-b1 complexes are potent inducers of Th17 differentiation in the presence of exogenous IL-6 and inducers of Treg in the presence of IL-2^[1][2].
GARP/LTGFβ1 complex is expressed at very low levels on freshly explanted Treg, but markedly upregulated following Treg activation in vitro. GARP/Latent TGF-β1 complex on Treg cells modulates the induction of peripherally derived Treg cells during oral tolerance^[3]

70-80 kDa

Greater than 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE.

Lyophilized powder

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

<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.
