Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor Receptor Subunit Alpha (CNTFR), recombinant human protein is supplied as a lyophilized powder. It is suitable for use in protein studies such as protein structure analysis and protein-protein interactions. In general, recombinant proteins can also be used as an immunogen, as a protein standard, or in cell biology research applications.

This recombinant protein was expressed from the amino acids sequence corresponding to (Met 1-Pro 346) of human CNTFR (NP_001833.1) fused to a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.

Activity: Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized human CNTFR at 10 µg/ml (100 µl/well) can bind biotinylated human CNTF with a linear ranger of 1.28-160 ng/ml.

Formulation: Lyophilized in 50 mM Tris, 100 mM NaCl, pH 8.0, 5% Mannitol, 5% Trehalose, 0.02% Tween 80.

Reconstitution: Dissolve the protein in sterile double distilled water to a concentration of 25 mg/ml or lower. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted and be used as soon as possible. Store aliquots under sterile conditions at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Expiration Date: Expires one year from date of receipt when stored as instructed.
