Synonyms :

Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-2, CCL8, HC14

Description :

The MCP proteins belong to the CC chemokine family, and signal through CCR2 and, with the exception of MCP-1, other CCR receptors. The MCP proteins chemoattract and activate monocytes, activated T cells, basophils, NK cells, and immature dendritic cells. The MCP family cross- reacts across species. Recombinant murine MCP-2 is an 8.5 kDa protein containing 74 amino acid residues including the four highly conserved cysteine residues present in the CC chemokines.

Catalog #:

250-14

Source :

E.coli

Stability :

The lyophilized protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt at -20⁰C. Reconstituted MCP-2 is stable for at least 3 months when stored in working aliquots with a carrier protein at -20⁰C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles

Purity :

Greater than 98% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC analyses.

Endotoxin Level :

Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per µg (1EU/µg).

Biological Activity :

Determined by its ability to chemoattract human peripheral blood monocytes using a concentration range of 10.0-100.0 ng/ml.
