Product Name :
human, rat Spexin-1
Group Type :
Non Antibodies
Product Type :
Proteins
Accession :
Q9BT56
Accession Number :
https://www.uniprot.org/uniprotkb/Q9BT56/entry
Applications :
Aequorin functional assay / Calcium imaging assay
Formulation :
Lyophilized from double distilled water (ddH2O). May contain TFA as a residual counter ion.
Storage After Reconstitution :
The reconstituted solution can be stored at 4°C for up to 1 week. For longer periods (up to 6 months), small aliquots should be stored at -20°C. We do not recommend storing the product in working solutions for longer than a few days. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Reconstitution and Solubility :
Centrifuge the vial (10,000 × g for 5 minutes) before adding solvent to spin down all the powder to the bottom of the vial. The lyophilized product may be difficult to visualize. Add solvent directly to the centrifuged vial. Gently tap, tilt, and roll the vial to aid dissolution. Avoid vigorous vortexing; light vortexing for up to 3 seconds is acceptable if needed. The product is soluble in pure water at high micromolar concentrations (100 µM - 1 mM). For long-term storage in solution, we recommend preparing a stock solution by dissolving the product in double-distilled water (ddH2O) at a concentration between 100-1000x of the final working concentration. Divide the stock solution into small aliquots and store at -20°C. Before use, thaw the relevant vial(s) and dilute to the desired working concentration in your working buffer. Centrifuge all product preparations before use. It is recommended to prepare fresh solutions in working buffers just before use. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles to maintain biological activity.

Gene ID :
GALR2, GALR3
Product Page - Scientific background :
Spexin-1 is a potent 14 amino acid neuropeptide that acts as a Galanin 2 (GALR2) and Galanin 3 (GALR3) receptor agonist, and shows no activity towards Galanin receptor 1.Expression of spexin-1 at the mRNA and protein levels are detected in the brain and in peripheral tissues of humans, mice and rats. Studies have shown that and administration of Spexin-1 leads to weight loss in rodents and suppresses appetite in goldfish1.GalR2 and GalR3 receptors are implicated in several biological functions, in which the central nervous system functions controlling memory, seizure, pain, anxiety, depression, and mood disorder2.
