products type :
Recombinant Protein
products full name :
Ovine prolactin antagonist R129G
products short name :
prolactin antagonist R129G
products name syn :
Ovine prolactin antagonist G129R
other names :
prolactin; Prolactin; prolactin; decidual prolactin; prolactin
other gene names :
PRL; PRL; PRL
uniprot entry name :
PRL_HUMAN
sequence :
The sequence of the first six N-terminal amino acids of the non-truncated form was determined and was found to be Ala-Thr-ProVal-Cys-Pro.
purity :
Greater than 99.0% as determined by:. (a) Gel filtration analysis. (b) Analysis by reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE gel.
form :
White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
storage stability :
Lyophilized oPRL G129R although stable at room temperature for several weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18 degree C. Upon reconstitution at > 0.1 oPRL mg/ml and up to 4 mg/ml mM and filter sterilization oPRL can be stored at 4 degree C for several weeks.
other info1 :
Solubility: It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized oPRL G129R in sterile water or 0.4% NaHCO3 adjusted tp pH 8-9, not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions, preferably in presence of carrier protein. Protein Content: Protein quantitation was carried out by UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.85 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution at pH 8.0. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics). Dimers and Aggregates: The purified oPRL G129R (23K)or its truncared analogue consists of > 99% monomers as determined by gel-filtration chromatography.
other info2 :
Endotoxin: Less than 0.1 ng/ug (IEU/ug) of oPRL G129R. Formulation: The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution with 0.02-0.03% NaHCO3. Biological Activity: oPRL G129R is devoid of agonistic activity and capable of inhibiting biological activity of oPRL or other lactogenic hormones as evidenced by proliferation assay of Nb2 or other cells. The truncated form is more potent inhibitor.
products categories :
Growth hormones, prolactins, placental lactogens
products description :
Recombinant ovine prolactin, G129R mutein is one polypeptide chain containing 199 amino and an additional Ala at N-terminus acids and having a molecular mass of ~ 23 kDa, was purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques (no published information). It is available in two forms: as full size protein and it its DES 9 aa truncated form from its N-terminus which has higher inhibitory activity.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes the anterior pituitary hormone prolactin. This secreted hormone is a growth regulator for many tissues, including cells of the immune system. It may also play a role in cell survival by suppressing apoptosis, and it is essential for lactation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein.
