Specifications Source Mouse CD40 Ligand/TNFSF5 Trimer Protein is expressed from HEK293 with monomeric hFc tag at the N-terminal. It contains Met112-Leu260.[Accession | P27548] Molecular Weight The protein has a predicted MW of 75.6 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 76-80 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result. Endotoxin Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method. Purity > 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE Activity ELISA Data: Immobilized Mouse CD40, His Tag at 1μg/ml (100μl/well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Mouse CD40 Ligand Trimer, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 0.12μg/ml determined by ELISA. Formulation Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS, 200mM L-arginine (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization. Reconstitution Centrifuge tubes before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Storage The product should be stored at -25~-15℃ for 1 year from the date of receipt. 2-7 days, 2 ~8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution. 3 months, -25~-15℃ under sterile conditions after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities when first used and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Note 1.Please operate with lab coats and disposable gloves for your safety. 2.This product is for research use only.
