Description

Melanotransferrin/CD228 protein is involved in cellular iron uptake, undergoing internalization and recycling to the cell membrane. Each subunit binds a single iron atom, suggesting a role in intracellular iron transport. Melanotransferrin/CD228 also exhibits potential zinc binding, showcasing versatile metal ion interactions. Melanotransferrin/CD228 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived Melanotransferrin/CD228 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Background

Melanotransferrin/CD228 protein is implicated in cellular iron uptake, where it appears to undergo internalization and subsequent recycling back to the cell membrane. Each subunit of this protein has the capacity to bind a single atom of iron, suggesting its role in intracellular iron transport. Additionally, Melanotransferrin/CD228 could potentially bind zinc, indicating a versatility in metal ion binding capabilities.

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).
