Description

NRG-1 Protein, Human belongs to a family of structurally-related polypeptide growth factors derived from alternatively spliced genes, induces Fn14 expression in MCF7 cells.

Background

HRG1-β1 activates HER2/HER3 signaling and up-regulate Fn14 gene expression in parental MCF7 cells. HRG1-β1-mediated Fn14 up-regulation in MCF7/HER2-18 cells is required for maximal MMP-9 production[1].

Biological Activity

Measured in a serum-free cell proliferation assay using MCF-7 human breast cancer cells. The ED50 this effect is ≤ 2.158 ng/mL, corresponding to a specific activity is ≥ 4.6339×105 units/mg.

Molecular Weight

Approximately 8 kDa

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

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from sterile PBS or 50 mM Tris-HCL, 300 mM NaCl, 200 mM arginine, pH 8.0.

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
