Name : Human EGFRVIII Protein
Product Source :
Recombinant Human EGFRVIII Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag and Avi tag at the N-Terminus. It contains Leu25-Ser378.[Accession | NP_001333870.1]
Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 41.6 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 68-80 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 EGFRVIII on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Human EGFRVIII is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC. ELISA Data Immobilized Human EGFRVIII, His Tag at 0.5μg/ml (100μl/Well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Anti-EGFRVIII Antibody, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 14.2ng/ml determined by ELISA.
Background :
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is overexpressed in a variety of human epithelial tumors, often as a consequence of gene amplification. Tumors with EGFR gene amplification frequently contain EGFR gene rearrangements, with the most common extracellular domain mutation being EGFRvIII. This mutation leads to a deletion of exons 2-7 of the EGFR gene and renders the mutant receptor incapable of binding any known ligand.
Synonyms :
ErbB; EC 2.7.10; EC 2.7.10.1; EGFR; mENA; LEGFR; ERBB; ERBB1; HER1; PIG61; NISBD2
