Name : Human Latent TGF beta 2/TGFB2 Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human Latent TGF beta 2/TGFB2 Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the N-Terminus. It contains Leu21-Ser414.[Accession | P61812-1]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 46.6 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 40-60 kDa&12-13 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Endotoxin Level :
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Purity :
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE> 95% as determined by HPLC

Formulation :
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Reconstitution :
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.

Storage and Stability :
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -80°C for 3-6 months after reconstitution. 2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Human Latent TGF beta 2 on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Human Latent TGF beta 2 is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC. SPR Data Human TGF-beta RII, hFc Tag captured on CM5 Chip via Protein A can bind Human Latent TGF beta 2, His Tag with an affinity constant of 2.21 μM as determined in SPR assay (Biacore T200).

Background :
Transforming growth factor beta(2) (TGF-beta(2)), a growth regulator of human lens epithelial cells (HLECs), also regulates the death of these cells. TGF-beta(2)-induced apoptosis in HLECs was preceded by an induction of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and a decrease in glutathione in the intracellular content, indicating that this factor induces oxidative stress in HLECs.

Synonyms :
TGFB2; TGFBR2; TGFR2; TbetaR-II; TGFβR2; BB105277; TGF-beta 2; TβR-II; TGF-β 2
