SKU:: PME100115
Additional Names:: D12S53E;gp100;ME20;ME20-M;ME20M;P1;P100;PMEL17;SI;SIL;SILV
Molecular Weight:: The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 46.2 kDa after removal of the signal peptide.The apparent molecular mass of PMEL-hFc is approximately 130-250 kDa due to glycosylation.
Purity:: The purity of the protein is greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining.
Storage Conditions:: Store at -20[o]C to -80[o]C for 12 months in lyophilized form. After reconstitution; if not intended for use within a month; aliquot and store at -80[o]C (Avoid repeated freezing and thawing). Lyophilized proteins are shipped at ambient temperature.
Supplier:: DIMA Biotechnology Ltd
Formulation:: Lyophilized from sterile PBS; pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8% trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization. Please see Certificate of Analysis for specific instructions of reconstitution.
Target:: PMEL
PMEL(Lys25-Leu545) hFc(Glu99-Ala330):: PMEL(Lys25-Leu545) hFc(Glu99-Ala330)
Extra Details:: This gene encodes a melanocyte-specific type I transmembrane glycoprotein. The encoded protein is enriched in melanosomes; which are the melanin-producing organelles in melanocytes; and plays an essential role in the structural organization of premelanosomes. This protein is involved in generating internal matrix fibers that define the transition from Stage I to Stage II melanosomes. This protein undergoes a complex pattern of prosttranslational processing and modification that is essential to the proper functioning of the protein. A secreted form of this protein that is released by proteolytic ectodomain shedding may be used as a melanoma-specific serum marker. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
