Name :
Recombinant Human RGMA Protein (His Tag), HPLC-verified

Biological Activity :

Background :
RGMa, also known as RGM domain family, member A, belongs to the RGM (repulsive guidance molecule) family whose members are membrane-associated glycoprotein. RGMa is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored glycoprotein that functions as an axon guidance protein in the developing and adult central nervous system. It helps guide Retinal Ganglion Cell (RGC) axons to the tectum in the midbrain. RGMa has been implicated to play an important role in the developing brain and in the scar tissue that forms after a brain injury. This protein may also function as a tumor suppressor in some cancers.

Synonyms :
repulsive guidance molecule family member a

Amino Acid Sequence :

Molecular Weight :
The secreted recombinant human RGMA consists of 386 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 43 kDa. As a result of glycosylation and proteolytic processing, rhRGMA migrates mainly as an approximately 36 kDa in SDS-PAGE corresponding to the mature segment under reducing conditions, and the un-cleaved pro form can also be seen.

Purity :
≥ 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE. ≥ 85 % as determined by SEC-HPLC.

State of Matter :

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 RGMA isoform 3 (NP_064596.2) (Met 1-Gly 422), without the C-terminal pro peptide, was fused 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.
