Platelet Factor-4 Mouse Recombinant (CXCL4)

Platelet factor-4 is a 70-amino acid protein that is released from the alpha-granules of activated platelets and binds with high affinity to heparin. Its major physiologic role appears to be neutralization of heparin-like molecules on the endothelial surface of blood vessels, thereby inhibiting local antithrombin III activity and promoting coagulation. As a strong chemoattractant for neutrophils and fibroblasts, PF4 probably has a role in inflammation and wound repair. Oncostatin-A is a member of the CXC chemocinfamily. Human PF4 is used for the proof of heparin-induced thrombocytopenia. Furthermore it is used as an inhibitor in the angiogenesis during tumor therapy.
Description CXCL4 Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 76 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 8.2kDa.
Synonyms CXCL4, PF-4, PF4, Iroplact, Oncostatin-A, SCYB4, MGC138298.

Amino Acid Sequence VTSAGPEESD GDLSCVCVKT ISSGIHLKHI TSLEVIKAGR HCAVPQLIAT LKNGRKICLD RQAPLYKKVI KKILES.
Purity >96% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Formulation Sterile Filtered white lyophilized powder.
The Mouse CXCL4 protein was lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in 20mM PB, pH 7.4 and 1.0M NaCl.
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.
Solubility It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized CXCL4 in sterile 18MΩ-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.
