Biological Activity

Description

GH/Somatotropin Protein, Mouse is a peptide hormone that stimulates growth, cell reproduction, and cell regeneration, which can be used for the growth disorders research.

Background

Growth Hormone (Somatotropin) is a peptide hormone that stimulates growth, cell reproduction, and cell regeneration, which can be used for the treatment of growth disorders in children[1]. Growth Hormone is a stress hormone that stimulates production of IGF-1 and raises the concentration of glucose and free fatty acids[2]. Growth Hormone exerts some of its effects by binding to receptors on target cells, where it activates the MAPK/ERK pathway[3].

Verified Bioactivity

1.Measured in a cell proliferation assay using Nb2-11 rat lymphoma cells. The ED50 for this effect is ≤0.1051 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity is ≥9.515×106 U/mg.
2.Immobilized Recombinant Mouse GHR (C-Fc) at 2 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Recombinant Mouse GH. Biotinylated by NHS-biotin prior to testing.The ED50 of Recombinant Mouse GH is 1.0-5.0 ng/mL.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

1.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM HEPES, 4% sucrose, 4% mannitol, 0.02% Tween 80, pH 8.0.
2.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 50 mM Tris-HCl, 500 mM NaCl, pH 8.0, 8% trehalose.
Please refer to the lot-specific COA for specific buffer information.
Note: For SPR assay, please replace the buffer. Primary amine components (e.g., Tris, imidazole) can affect protein-coupled chips.

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.

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.
