Name :
Recombinant Human Ephrin A3 Protein (His Tag)
Biological Activity :
Background :
Ephrin-A3 also known as EPH-related receptor tyrosine kinase ligand 3 or EFNA3, is a member of the ephrin family. The Eph family receptor interacting proteins (ephrins) are a family of proteins that serve as the ligands of the Eph receptor, which compose the largest known subfamily of receptor protein-tyrosine kinases (RTKs). Ephrin-A3 and their Eph family of receptor tyrosine kinases are expressed by cells of the SVZ. Ephrin subclasses are further distinguished by their mode of attachment to the plasma membrane: Ephrin-A3 ligands bind EphA receptors and are anchored to the plasma membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) linkage, whereas ephrin-B ligands bind EphB receptors and are anchored via a transmembrane domain. Ephrin-A3 expressed on astrocytes activates EphA4 on the post-synaptic neuron and restricts the growth of dendritic spines through multiple pathways.
Biological Activity :
Measured by its ability to compete with human EphrinA3 / Fc for binding to immobilized mouse EphA6-his in a functional ELISA assay.
Expression Host :
Human
Source :
HEK293 Cells

Synonyms :
Synonyms :
ephrin-A3
Amino Acid Sequence :
Molecular Weight :
The recombinant human EphrinA3 consists of 202 amino acids after removal of the signal peptide and has a predicted molecular mass of 23 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rhEphrinA3 is approximately 35-40 kDa due to glycosylation.
Purity :
> 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE

Product Concentration :
Storage and Stability :
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Endotoxin Level :
< 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method
Protein Construction :
A DNA sequence encoding the human EphrinA3 (NP_004943.1) (Met 1-Ser 213) with the C-terminal propeptide removed was expressed, with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
Buffer Solution :
Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4.Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % – 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hardcopy of datasheet.
Shipping :
In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature.Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise.
Redissolution :
A hardcopy of datasheet with reconstitution instructions is sent along with the products. Please refer to it for detailed information.
