Integrin alpha V beta 8 Protein, Human, Recombinant (His)

Catalog No. TMPY-05717
Synonyms: Integrin alpha V β8, Integrin α V β 8

Integrin alpha V beta 8 is a receptor for fibronectin. It recognizes the sequence R-G-D in its ligands. ITGAVB8 does not appear to assume different activation states; and the cytoplasmic tail does not connect to the cytoskeleton. It binds ligands containing an RGD motif; including vitronectin; fibrin and the latency associated peptide (LAP) of the latent TGF-beta complex. High affinity binding of alpha V beta 8 to LAP allows proteolytic cleavage by MT1-MMP; which releases active TGF-beta. This mechanism differs from that of alpha V beta 6; the other alpha V integrin which can activate TGF-beta from latency through non-proteolytic mechanisms.

Synonyms Integrin alpha V β8, Integrin α V β 8
Construction A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain (Met1-Val992) of human ITGAV (P06756) was fused with a C-terminal polyhistidine tag was expressed., constructed the plasmid 1; A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain (Met1-Arg684) of human ITGB8 (P26012) constructed the plasmid 2. The two plasmids were co-expressed and the human ITGAV&ITGB8 heterodimer was purified.
Protein Purity ≥ 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE. ≥ 95 % as determined by SEC-HPLC.

Molecular Weight Approxiamtely 187.95 kDa
Endotoxin < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
Formulation Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0. 01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA.
Reconstitution A hardcopy of datasheet with reconstitution instructions is sent along with the products. Please refer to it for detailed information.
Stability & Storage

Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Shipping

In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature.Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise.
