T5275	Thymus-expressed Chemokine, Human (TECK)	5ug 20ug

Growth Factors, Cytokines

Storage: -20°CShipping: Blue Ice

Human thymus-expressed chemokine (TECK), a 14.2kD protein containing 127 amino acid residues, is a novel CC chemokine that was identified in the thymus of mouse and human. TECK shows chemotactic activity for activated macrophages, dendritic cells and thymocytes.

Source:
E.coli

Form:
Sterile filtered and lyophilized without additives.

Stability:
Lyophilized protein, though stable at room temperature, is best stored desiccated below 0°C. Reconstituted TECK should be stored in working aliquots at -20°C.

Purity:
98% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analysis.

Endotoxin:
0.1 ng/ug (1EU/ug)

Reconstitution:
Lyophilized human TECK is soluble in water and most aqueous buffers and can be reconstituted in water to a concentration of 0.1–1.0mg/ml. This solution can be diluted into other buffered solutions or stored frozen for future use.

Biological Activity:
The biological activity of human TECK was determined by a chemotaxis assay using human monocytes. Significant chemotaxis was achieved at a concentration range of 1.0–10.0 ng/ml.

Molecular Weight:
14.2kD
