Catalog Number:  C22-107-12
Source:  Escherichia coli.
Molecular Weight:  Recombinant human Betacellulin is a 9.0 kDa monomeric protein, containing 80 amino residues,
 which comprises the mature EGF homologous portion of the Betacellulin protein.
Quantity:  5μg/20μg/1000μg
AA Sequence:  DGNSTRSPET NGLLCGDPEE NCAATTTQSK RKGHFSRCPK QYKHYCIKGR CRFVVAEQTP
 SCVCDEGYIG ARCERVDLFY
Purity:  >98% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.
Biological Activity:  Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 determined by a cell proliferation
 assay usingmurine Balb/c 3T3 cells is less than 0.05 ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of＞ 2.0 × 107 IU/mg.
Physical Appearance:  Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation:  Lyophilized from a 0.2μm filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4.
Endotoxin:  Less than 1EU/μg of rHuBTC as determined by LAL method.
Reconstitution:  We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the
 bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1% BSA to a
 concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and
 stored at <-20°C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
Storage:  This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8°C, but should be kept at -20°C for long term storage,
 preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one week at 2-8°C. For
 maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20°C to
 -70°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Usage:  This material is offered by Shanghai Corning Bio-Tech for research, laboratory or further evaluation purposes. NOT FOR HUMAN USE.

Recombinant Human Betacellulin
Betacellulin (BTC) is a member of the EGF family of cytokines that also includes EGF, TGF-a, Amphiregulin, HB-EGF,
Epiregulin, Tomoregulin and the Neuregulins. At the amino acid sequence level, human mature BTC protein exhibits 80%
identity with mouse BTC protein. BTC is expressed in most tissues including kidney, uterus, liver and pancreas. It is also present
in body fluids, including serum, milk, and colostrum.
