Name : Human VSIG8 Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human VSIG8 Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the C-Terminus. It contains Val22-Gly263.[Accession | P0DPA2]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 28.2 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 29-32 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

Formulation :
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in 20mM NaAc,150mM NaCl (pH 4.0). 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 20mM NaAc,150mM NaCl (pH 4.0).

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 VSIG8 on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%.

Background :
VSIG8 (V-Set And Immunoglobulin Domain Containing 8) is a Protein Coding gene. Diseases associated with VSIG8 include Retinitis Pigmentosa 30 and Monilethrix. An important paralog of this gene is CXADR.The present work helps characterize the component V-set and immunoglobulin domain containing 8 (VSIG8) in hair shaft and nail plate to assist in understanding its possible relation to disease states.

Synonyms :
VSIG8; C1orf204
