MCP-1/CCL2 Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His)

Cat. No.: HY-P700787
Handling Instructions

MCP-1/CCL2 protein activates CCR2 and induces chemotaxis and calcium ion mobilization. It attracts monocytes and basophils, not neutrophils or eosinophils. It also contributes to neuropathic pain and enhances synaptic transmission in dopamine neurons. MCP-1/CCL2 exists as a monomer or homodimer and binds to endothelial cells through proteoglycans. It interacts with TNFAIP6 via its Link domain. MCP-1/CCL2 Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His) is the recombinant cynomolgus-derived MCP-1/CCL2 protein, expressed by HEK293, with C-His labeled tag. The total length of MCP-1/CCL2 Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His) is 76 a.a., with molecular weight of 13-16 kDa.

Background

MCP-1/CCL2 protein acts as a ligand for C-C chemokine receptor CCR2, leading to the activation and binding of CCR2 and subsequently inducing a strong chemotactic response and mobilization of intracellular calcium ions. It displays chemotactic activity specifically for monocytes and basophils, but not for neutrophils or eosinophils. Additionally, MCP-1/CCL2 plays a crucial role in mediating neuropathic pain resulting from peripheral nerve injury. It enhances NMDA-mediated synaptic transmission in dopamine D1 and D2 receptor-containing neurons, potentially through MAPK/ERK-dependent phosphorylation of GRIN2B/NMDAR2B. MCP-1/CCL2 exists as a monomer or homodimer, with its presence on endothelial cells facilitated by glycosaminoglycan (GAG) side chains of proteoglycans. Furthermore, it interacts with TNFAIP6 through its Link domain.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
