Biological Activity

Description

OSM Protein, Human (209a.a) is a polypeptide chain containing 209 amino acids. Oncostatin M is a cytokine belonging to the IL-6 family that has multiple functions in hematopoiesis, mesenchymal stem cell differentiation, liver regeneration, heart remodeling, nociception, inflammation and metabolism.

Background

Oncostatin M is a cytokine belonging to the IL-6 family that has multiple functions in hematopoiesis, mesenchymal stem cell differentiation, liver regeneration, heart remodeling, nociception, inflammation and metabolism. The full-length Oncostatin M proteins contain between 239 and 263 amino acids which fold into a long-chain four helix-bundle protein with an up-up-down-down topology representative of all other IL-6 family cytokines. Human Oncostatin-M can bind to either the type I receptor complex consisting of gp130 and the LIFR (gp130/LIFRb) or the type II receptor complex consisting of gp130 and the OSMR (gp130/OSMRb). In the murine system Oncostatin-M has been shown to bind with high affinity only to the type II gp130/OSMRb complex[1][2]. Oncostatin-M binds to specific receptor complexes, then activates two major signaling pathways: Janus Kinase-Signal Transducers and Activators of Transcription (JAK-STAT) and Mitogen-Activated Protein Kinase (MAPK), to regulate downstream events[3].

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

1.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS.
2.Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4, 8% trehalose.
Please refer to the lot-specific COA for specific buffer information.

Endotoxin Level

<0.2 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 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
