Family with Sequence Similarity 19 Member A2 Human Recombinant

TAFA-2 is a 11 kDa secreted protein that belongs to the FAM19/TAFA family of chemokine-like proteins. Similar to other FAM19/TAFA family members, mature TAFA-1 contains 10 regularly spaced cysteine residues with the same pattern: CX7CCX13CXCX14CX11CX4CX5CX10C (C symbolizes a conserved cysteine residue and X symbolizes any noncysteine amino acid). Human TAFA-2 is 97% aa identical to mouse TAFA-2 and is expressed in the central nervous system (CNS), colon, heart, lung, spleen, kidney, and thymus, however its expression in the CNS is 50 to 1000 fold higher than in other tissues. The biological roles of TAFA family members have not yet been determined.
Description TAFA2 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a non-glycosylated, Polypeptide chain containing 101 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 11.2kDa.
The TAFA2 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms Family with sequence similarity 19 (chemokine (C-C motif)-like) member A2, Chemokine-like protein TAFA-2, protein FAM19A2.

Purity >96% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Formulation Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
The protein was lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in 1×PBS, pH7.4.
Stability The lyophilized form of the protein is stable at room temperature for 3 weeks and at -20°C for at least 2 years from the date of receipt. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C for no more than 7 days. The protein is stable at -20°C for six months. For long term storage, please store at -80°C and the addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended. Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Biological Activity Fully biologically active when compared to standard. Measured by its ability to enhance neurite outgrowth of E16-E18 rat embryonic cortical neurons.
Solubility It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized TAFA2 in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Usage LABORATORY RESEARCH USE ONLY. Not intended for diagnostic or therapeutic purposes.
