Description

MCP-3/CCL7 Protein, Rat  is a CC chemokine and elicitor that binds to CCR1, CCR2 and CCR3 to mediate antiviral, antibacterial, antitumor and other immune responses. MCP-3/CCL7 Protein, Rat is a recombinant rat MCP-3/CCL7 protein expressed by E.coilMCP-3/CCL7 (Q24-P97)[1].

Background

CCL7, also known as monocyte chemotactic protein 3 (MCP3), is a small cell factor. In the human genome, CCL7 is encoded by the CCL7 gene located on chromosome 17q11.2-q12. It consists of 99 amino acids, including a signal peptide of 23 amino acids, while a mature protein of approximately 76 amino acids is secreted upon signal peptide cleavage. CCL7 is expressed in a variety of cell types, such as stromal cells, keratin-forming cells, airway smooth muscle cells, parenchymal cells, fibroblasts and leukocytes, and tumor cells[1]. CCL7 is generally present as a monomer and can bind to a variety of receptors, including CCR1, CCR2, CCR3, CCR5 and CCR10 to mediate effects on immune cell types.CCL7 can act as a chemoattractant, attracting a variety of leukocytes, including monocytes and neutrophils. It mediates the immune response by recruiting leukocytes to infected tissues and is also involved in monocyte mobilization and recruitment of monocytes to sites of inflammation, as well as inducing neutrophil migration to sites of inflammation by increasing intracellular Ca2+ flux. CCL7 is involved in antibacterial, antiviral and antifungal immune responses, as well as being associated with various immune diseases such as ulcerative colitis, multiple sclerosis or non-atopic and atopic asthma. At the same time, CCL7 expression activates antitumor immune responses[2].

Biological Activity

Full biological activity determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human monocytes is in a concentration range of 10-100 ng/ml.

Molecular Weight

Approximately 8.5 kDa

Purity

Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized after extensive dialysis against 2× 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. 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.

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
