- Extra Details:
- Erythropoietin (Epo), a glycoprotein produced primarily by the kidney, is the principal factor that regulates erythropoiesis by stimulating the proliferation and differentiation of erythroid progenitor cells. The biological effects of Epo are mediated by the erythropoietin receptor (Epo R). The genes for human and mouse Epo R have been cloned and characterized. The full-length human Epo R cDNA encodes a type I membrane-spanning protein with 508 amino acid (aa) residues (a 24 aa residue hydrophobic signal sequence, a 226 aa residue extracellular domain, a 22 aa residue transmembrane domain and a 236 aa residue cytoplasmic domain). At the protein sequence level, the human Epo R is approximately 82% identical to the mouse protein. As a result of alternative splicing of the Epo R gene, cDNA clones encoding a truncated form of the Epo R as well as the soluble form of Epo R has been found. The presence of a soluble form of the Epo R has also been detected on human sera. Recombinant soluble Epo R binds Epo with high affinity and is a potent Epo antagonist. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunocytochemistry. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Western Blot: 0.1ug/ml Immunocytochemistry: 5-15ug/ml in immersion fixed mouse bone marrow cells Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized and reconstituted products are stable for 12 months after receipt at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile PBS. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
