MCP4 Active Protein | Mcpt4 active protein

MCP4, Recombinant, Human (Macrophage/Monocyte Chemotactic Protein 4)

Gene Names
Mcpt4; Mcp4; Mcp-4; MMCP-4; MMCP-4A; MMCP-4B
Purity
Highly Purified
>98% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC
Synonyms
MCP4; Recombinant; Human (Macrophage/Monocyte Chemotactic Protein 4); Mcpt4 active protein
Ordering
For Research Use Only!
Host
E Coli
Purity/Purification
Highly Purified
>98% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC
Form/Format
Lyophilized protein with no additives.
Biological Activity
The maximal chemotactic activity of human MCP-4 on human monocytes was achieved at 100 ng/ml. The maximal chemotactic activity on human eosinophils was achieved at 10 ng/ml.
Reconstitution
The lyophilized MCP-4 is soluble in water and most aqueous buffers. The lyophilized protein MCP-4 can be reconstituted in water to a concentration of 1.0 mg/ml. This solution can be diluted into other buffered solutions or stored at -20 degree C for future use.
Preparation and Storage
-20 degree C
Stability: The lyophilized protein, though stable at room temperature, is best stored desiccated below 0 degree C. Reconstituted human MCP-4 should be stored in working aliquots at -20 degree C.
Related Product Information for Mcpt4 active protein
Human macrophage/monocyte chemotactic protein-4 (MCP-4) is a member of the b-chemokine family (C-C) of cytokines. Like eotaxin, MCP-4 is a powerful eosinophil chemoattractant. Additionally, like MCP-3, MCP-4 elicits chemoattraction of monocytes and T lymphocytes. MCP-4 is a peptide of 8.5kD that consists of 75 amino acid residues.

Uniprot Description

Function: Has chymotrypsin-like activity. Hydrolyzes the amide bonds of synthetic substrates having Tyr and Phe residues at the P1 position. Preferentially hydrolyzes the 'Tyr-4-|-Ile-5' bond of angiotensin I and the 'Phe-20-|-Ala-21' bond of amyloid beta-protein, and is less active towards the 'Phe-8-|-His-9' bond of angiotensin I and the 'Phe-4-|-Ala-5' and 'Tyr-10-|-Glu-11' bonds of amyloid beta-protein. Involved in thrombin regulation and fibronectin processing. Ref.4 Ref.7

Enzyme regulation: Completely inhibited by serine protease inhibitors such as chymostatin, diisopropylfluorophosphate and phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, but not by p-tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone, p-tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone, pepstatin, E-64, EDTA or o-phenanthroline. Also inhibited by lima bean trypsin inhibitor, soy bean trypsin inhibitor and human plasma alpha1-antichymotrysin.

Subunit structure: Monomer. Ref.4

Tissue specificity: Submucosal mast cells. In femoral muscle, detected in myocytes but not in mast cells. Ref.4

Disruption phenotype: Mice display an impaired ability to inactivate thrombin or degrade fibronectin in peritoneal cells. Ref.7

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the peptidase S1 family. Granzyme subfamily.Contains 1 peptidase S1 domain.

Biophysicochemical propertiespH dependence:Optimum pH is 9 at high salt concentrations.

Mass spectrometry: Molecular mass is 25187 Da from positions 21 - 246. Determined by MALDI. Ref.4

Sequence caution: The sequence BAB18732.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation.

Product Notes

The Mcpt4 mcpt4 (Catalog #AAA650692) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MCP4, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
