Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Related Product Information for AVID active protein
Introduction: Avidin is a tetrameric protein of 4 identical subunits (homotetramer) which can bind to biotin with a high degree of affinity and specificity. The estimated molecular weight of Avidin in its tetrameric form is between 66-69 kDa. Avidin is produced in the oviducts of birds, reptiles and amphibians and is subsequently deposited in the whites of their eggs. In the chicken egg white, avidin makes up roughly 0.05% of total protein (approximately 1.8 mg per egg). 10% of Avidin’s molecular weight is ascribed to carbohydrate content which is composed of 4-5 mannose and 3 N-acetylglucosamine residues. Avidin has at least three distinctive oligosaccharide structural type which are similar in structure and composition. The dissociation constant (KD) of avidin is approximately 10-15M, making it one of the strongest known non-covalent bonds.

Description: Recombinant Avidin produced in Plants is a polypeptide chain having a molecular mass of 66kDa and 16kda per subunit.The Recombinant Avidin is purified by affinity chromatographic techniques.

Product Notes

The AVID avd (Catalog #AAA141390) is an Active Protein produced from Corn (Zea Mays) 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 "Avidin, 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.
