Name :
IGFBP-7 Protein

Description :
Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 7 (IGFBP7) is a member of the IGFBP family. It has been identified in colorectal adenocarcinoma (CRC) cell lines. The Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein also known as IGFBP serves as a carrier protein for Insulin-like growth factor 1. IGFBPs are distinct but are sharing regions with strong homology. All members of the IGFBP family bind IGF-I and IGF-II with about equal affinity. Insulin-like growth factor (IGF) binding proteins (IGFBPs) have been shown to either inhibit or enhance the action of IGF or act in an IGF-independent manner in the prostate. IGFBP7 could inhibit cell growth, decrease soft agar colony formation activity, and induce apoptosis in RKO and SW620 cells. There is mounting evidence that the structure of the IGFBP proteins plays a key role in the regulation of IGF bioavailability, by modulating its molecular size, capillary membrane permeability, target tissue specificity, cell membrane adherence, and IGF affinity.

Formulatione :
Lyophilized from sterile 25mM MES, 150mM Nacl, 0. 02% Tween 20, 5% Trehalose, 10% Glycerol, pH 5. 5. Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % – 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0. 01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA.

Reconstitution :
A hardcopy of datasheet with reconstitution instructions is sent along with the products. Please refer to it for detailed information.

Stability & Storage :
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.

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.
