Leptin Recombinant Protein

• Catalog Number: orb1230641
• Category: Proteins
• Description: Leptin Recombinant Protein
• Form/Appearance: Lyophilized
• Purity: Greater than 98% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC analyses.Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per μg (1EU/μg).
• Target: Lep
• UniProt ID: P50596
• Protein Sequence: MVPIHKVQDD TKTLIKTIVT RINDISHTQS VSARQRVTGL DFIPGLHPIL SLSKMDQTLA VYQQILTSLP SQNVLQIAHD LENLRDLLHL LAFSKSCSLP QTRGLQKPES LDGVLEASLY STEVVALSRL QGSLQDILQQ LDLSPEC
• Source: E. coli
• Biological Activity: Biological activity was determined by an in vivo assay using the ob/ob mouse obesity model and NZO. Both strains of mice were treated via intraperitoneal injection once daily at a dose of 5μg leptin/gm of body weight for 7 days. Significant effects on body weight, food consumption, and plasma glucose levels were observed to saline - treated controls.
• NCBI: NP_037208.1
• Storage: The lyophilized Leptin recombinant protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt at -20°C. Reconstituted Leptin is stable for at least 3 months when stored in working aliquots with a carrier protein at -20°C. As with any protein, exposing Leptin recombinant protein to repeated freeze / thaw cycles is not recommended. When working with proteins care should be taken to keep recombinant protein at a cool and stable temperature.
• Alternative names: OB, obese, Ob, Leptin, Obesity factor
• Note: For research use only
• Expiration Date: 6 months from date of receipt.
