Biological Activity

Description

SPARC Protein, Human is a Ca2+-binding glycoprotein that is differentially associated with morphogenesis, remodeling, cellular migration, and proliferation.

Background

SPARC (secreted protein, acidic and rich in cysteine) is the founding member of a family of secreted matricellular proteins with similar domain structure. SPARC shows context specific effects, but generally inhibits adhesion, spreading and proliferation, and promotes collagen matrix formation. For endothelial cells, SPARC disrupts focal adhesions and binds and sequesters PDGF and VEGF[1][2].

Verified Bioactivity

The ED50 is <3.0 μg/mL as measured by its ability to inhibit the cell growth of Mv1Lu mink lung epithelial cells, corresponding to a specific activity of >333 units/mg.

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).

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

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
