Name : Cynomolgus ALK-1/ACVRL1 Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Cynomolgus ALK-1/ACVRL1 Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the C-Terminus. It contains Asp22-Gln118.[Accession | XP_005570958.1]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 11.86 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 25-35 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 0.22 μm 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 Cynomolgus ALK-1 on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Cynomolgus ALK-1 is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC.

Background :
Activin receptor-like kinase 1 (ALK1)-mediated endothelial cell signalling in response to bone morphogenetic protein 9 (BMP9) and BMP10 is of significant importance in cardiovascular disease and cancer. Structural analyses reveal a tripartite recognition mechanism that defines BMP9 and BMP10 specificity for ALK1, and predict that crossveinless 2 is not an inhibitor of BMP9, which is confirmed by experimental evidence.

Synonyms :
ACVRLK1; ORW2; ALK1; ALK-1; EC 2.7.11; HHT; HHT2; SKR3; TSR-I; ACVRL1
