Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-5 Mouse Recombinant (CCL12)

MCP-5 (CCL12) is a cloned mouse CC chemokine most closely related to human MCP1 (66% amino acid sequence identity in the mature protein). MCP5 is expressed constitutively in the thymus and the lymph nodes. Under inflammatory conditions, moreover CCL12 expression is induced in activated macrophages and mast cells. The mouse MCP1 gene is mapped to the CC chemokine cluster on chromosome 11. Recombinant CCL12 is a potent chemoattractant for monocytes and lymphocytes but not neutrophils. At high concentrations, MCP-5 also chemoattracts eosinophils. CCL12 is a functional ligand for CCR2.
Description MCP-5 Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 82 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 9.3kDa.
The MCP5 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Purity >96% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Formulation Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in 1×PBS, pH 7.4.
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 Determined by its ability to chemoattract human peripheral blood monocytes using a concentration range of 10.0-50.0 ng/ml.
Solubility It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized MCP5 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.
