Product Description
Recombinant Human C-C motif chemokine 8 protein (CCL8) (Active) is available at Gentaur for Next week Delivery.
Gene Name: CCL8,MCP2,SCYA10,SCYA8
Alternative Names : HC14, Monocyte chemotactic protein 2, MCP-2, Small-inducible cytokine A8,
Expression Region : 24-99aa
AA Sequence : QPDSVSIPIT CCFNVINRKI PIQRLESYTR ITNIQCPKEA VIFKTKRGKE VCADPKERWV RDSMKHLDQI FQNLKP
Sequence Info : Full Length of Mature Protein
Tag Info : Tag-Free
Theoretical MW : 8.9 kDa
Storage Buffer : Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered PBS, pH 7.4
Endotoxin Level : Less than 1.0 EU/µg as determined by LAL method.-
Biological Activity : The biological activity determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human peripheral blood monocytes is in a concentration range of 10-100 ng/ml.
Storage : Short term: -20°C; Long term: -80°C. Minimize freeze and thaw cycles.
Research Area : Immunology
Restriction : For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures, drug use, or for administration to humans or animals.
Relevance : Chemotactic factor that attracts monocytes, lymphocytes, basophils and eosinophils. May play a role in neoplasia and inflammatory host responses. This protein can bind heparin. The processed form MCP-2(6-76) does not show monocyte chemotactic activity, but inhibits the chemotactic effect most predominantly of CCL7, and also of CCL2 and CCL5 and CCL8. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:9558113}.
