Name : Mouse LGMN Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Mouse LGMN Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the N-Terminus. It contains Val18-Tyr435.[Accession | O89017]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 48.6 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 55-60 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 :
Supplied as 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4).

Reconstitution :

Storage and Stability :
Valid for 12 months from date of receipt when stored at -80°C. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Mouse LGMN on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Mouse LGMN is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC.

Background :
Recently, functional studies have demonstrated that legumain (LGMN) cleaves both amyloid β-protein precursor and tau, promoting senile plaques and formation of neurofibrillary tangles, which may play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). In single-variant association analysis, none of the common variants in LGMN were statistically significant. In gene-based analysis, the LGMN gene also showed no association with AD.

Synonyms :
Legumain; Prsc1; AEP; LGMN; LGMN1; AI746452; AU022324
