Host:: Goat
Immunogen:: Human Protein S (PS) purified from plasma.
Format:: Supplied as a liquid in 10mM HEPES, pH 7.4, 150mM sodium chloride, 50% glycerol.
Weitere Details:: Protein S is a vitamin K-dependent, potent neutral anticoagulant plasma glycoprotein. Protein S has a molecular weight of approximately 70kD and concists of a single polypeptide chain. The concentration of protein S in human plasma is 25ug/ml, with a half-life of approximately two days. About 40% of Protein S in plasma is in a free form, whereas 60% is complexed with C4b-binding Protein (C4BP). Only the free Protein S functions as a cofactor to antigen presenting cells (APC) in the APC-dependent degradation of Factor Va and Factor VIIIa. Protein S is thought to function in both the coagulation and complement cascades. It has been suggested that g-carboxyglutamic acid (gla) dependent binding of protein S to negatively charged phospholipids may function to concentrate C4BP at cell surfaces following injury. The domain structure of Protein S is similar to that of the other vitamin K-dependant coagulation factors with the exception that Protein S does not possess the catalytic triad. Protein S is a single chain protein containing 10 gla residues in the NH2-terminal domain and 4 epidermal growth factor (EGF) domains. Applications: Suitable for use ELISA and Immunoelectrophoresis. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: May be stored at 4°C for short-term only. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Aliquots are stable for 12 months after receipt. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap.
