LCAT Protein, Mouse, Recombinant (His)

Lecithin:cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT) is the only enzyme capable of esterifying cholesterol in plasma, thus determining the maturation of high-density lipoproteins. Because it maintains an unesterified cholesterol gradient between peripheral cells and extracellular acceptors, for a long time, LCAT has been considered as a key enzyme in reverse cholesterol transport.

Description

Species	Mouse
Expression System	HEK293
Tag	C-His
Accession Number	P16301
Synonyms	PAF acetylhydrolase, LCAT
Construction	Recombinant Mouse LCAT Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the C-Terminus. It contains Phe25-Glu438.[Accession \|P16301]
Protein Purity	> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE
Molecular Weight	The protein has a predicted MW of 48.3 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 67-75 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Endotoxin	Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.
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.
Stability & Storage	-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -20 to -80°C for 3-6 months in unopened state 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.
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.
