This product (SKU: RPCB1494) is produced using E. coli and features a NO-Tag tag for convenient detection and purification. The protein exhibits a calculated molecular weight of 8.17 kDa with an observed molecular weight of 10-15 kDa under denaturing conditions, achieving ≥ 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE.. Functional bioactivity has been validated through rigorous quality control assays, confirming its suitability for demanding research applications.
High quality, high purity and low endotoxin recombinant Recombinant Human Complement C5A Protein (RPCB1494), tested reactivity in E. coli and has been validated in SDS-PAGE.100% guaranteed.
Endotoxin:
< 0.1 EU/μg of the protein by LAL method.
Purity:
≥ 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Formulation:
Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Bio-Activity:
Measured by its ability to induce N-acetyl-β-D-glucosaminidase release from differentiated U937 human histiocytic lymphoma cells. The ED 50 for this effect is typically 5-15 ng/mL.
Reconstitution:
Centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute to a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/mL in sterile distilled water. Avoid vortex or vigorously pipetting the protein. For long term storage, it is recommended to add a carrier protein or stablizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose), and aliquot the reconstituted protein solution to minimize free-thaw cycles.
Storage:
Store at -20℃.Store the lyophilized protein at -20℃ to -80 ℃ up to 1 year from the date of receipt. After reconstitution, the protein solution is stable at -20℃ for 3 months, at 2-8℃ for up to 1 week.
Human Complement 5a (C5a) is an enzymatically generated glycoprotein that belongs to a family of structurally and functionally related proteins known as anaphylatoxins. Human C5a has four alpha -helices plus three intrachain disulfide bonds that create a triple loop structure. In serum, proteolytic processing removes the C‑terminal arginine, creating a low activity C5adesArg74 molecule. Human C5a is 60% and 54% aa identical to mouse and rat C5a, respectively. C5a binds to a signaling G-protein coupled receptor (C5aR/CD88) and a nonsignaling GPCR termed C5L2. Activation of Cd88 results in neutrophil chemotaxis and endothelial cell activation. It also triggers an oxidative burst in macrophages and neutrophils, and induces release of histamine in basophils and mast cells.
Recombinant Human Complement C5A Protein was determined by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions with Coomassie Blue.
