Tenascin/Tnc protein, Mouse (HEK293, His)

Tenascin/Tnc proteins guide neuronal and axonal migration and contribute to development, synaptic plasticity, and neuronal regeneration.Tenascin/Tnc protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived Tenascin/Tnc protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

The Tenascin/Tnc protein, an extracellular matrix protein, assumes a critical role in guiding migrating neurons and axons during development, as well as contributing to synaptic plasticity and neuronal regeneration. It not only promotes neurite outgrowth in cultured neurons but also may play a role in supporting the growth of epithelial tumors, underscoring its diverse functional implications. Serving as a ligand for integrins ITGA8:ITGB1, ITGA9:ITGB1, ITGAV:ITGB3, and ITGAV:ITGB6, Tenascin/Tnc establishes molecular interactions essential for cellular communication and signaling. In the context of tumors, it stimulates angiogenesis by facilitating the elongation, migration, and sprouting of endothelial cells. Structurally, Tenascin/Tnc exists as a homohexamer with a potential homotrimer formation in the triple coiled-coil region, further stabilized by disulfide rings at both ends. The interaction with CSPG4 suggests its involvement in intricate cellular and molecular processes across diverse biological contexts.

Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to block Fibronectin-mediated adhesion of NIH-3T3 mouse embryonic fibroblast cells. Tenascin immobilized at 15 μg/mL, in the presence of 0.1 μg/mL human Fibronectin, will block approximately 70-90 % NIH-3T3 cell adhesion (5×10^4 cells/well, 100 μL/well).

Approximately 70-95 kDa, based on SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, due to the glycosylation.

• 
  ≥ 95%, as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Lyophilized powder

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4, 8% trehalose.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O.

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.

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
