Activity Data (Figure. The binding activity of MSTN with FSTL3.Myostatin (MSTN) also known as growth differentiation factor 8 (GDF-8) a myokine, a protein produced and released by myocytes. It inhibit myogenesis including muscle cell growth and differentiation. Myostatin is a secreted growth differentiation factor that is a member of the TGF beta protein family. Besides, Follistatin Like Protein 3 (FSTL3) has been identified as an interactor of MSTN, thus a binding ELISA assay was conducted to detect the interaction of recombinant rat MSTN and recombinant rat FSTL3. Briefly, MSTN were diluted serially in PBS, with 0.01% BSA (pH 7.4). Duplicate samples of 100uL were then transferred to FSTL3-coated microtiter wells and incubated for 2h at 37 degree C. Wells were washed with PBST and incubated for 1h with anti-MSTN pAb, then aspirated and washed 3 times. After incubation with HRP labelled secondary antibody, wells were aspirated and washed 3 times. With the addition of substrate solution, wells were incubated 15-25 minutes at 37 degree C. Finally, add 50uL stop solution to the wells and read at 450nm immediately. The binding activity of MSTN and FSTL3 was shown in Figure 1, and this effect was in a dose dependent manner.)

Reconstitution
Reconstitute in 20mM Tris, 150mM NaCl (pH8.0) to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Do not vortex.
Preparation and Storage
Store at 2-8 degree C for one month. Aliquot and store at -80 degree C for 12 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.

NCBI Description

This gene encodes a member of the TGF-beta (transforming growth factor-beta) family of proteins. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate an N-terminal propeptide and a C-terminal subunit. The C-terminal subunits form the mature homodimer, which negatively regulates skeletal muscle cell proliferation and differentiation. Mutations in this gene are associated with increased skeletal muscle mass in humans and other mammals. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2016]

Uniprot Description

Acts specifically as a negative regulator of skeletal muscle growth.

Product Notes

The MSTN mstn (Catalog #AAA2105146) is an Active Protein and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is Arg267~Ser376. AAA Biotech's Myostatin (MSTN) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Cell Culture, Activity Assays. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the MSTN mstn for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Myostatin (MSTN), 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.
