Introduction
APRIL which is a part of the TNF ligand superfamily (TNFSF13) is a type II transmembrane protein. Normally, APRIL expression is low in tissues, but is elevated in numerous types of tumors and transformed cell lines.
Description
APRIL Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 159 amino acids (105-247) and having a molecular mass of 17.6kDa.
APRIL is fused to a 16 amino acid T7-tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
APRIL protein solution (1mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 0.4M UREA and 10% glycerol.
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
