purity :
> 98% by SDS-PAGE & HPLC analyses
storage stability :
The lyophilized protein is stable at room temperature for 1 month and at 4°C for 6 months. Reconstituted working aliquots are stable for 1 week at 2°C to 8°C and for 3 months at -20°C to -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
other info1 :
Endotoxin Level: < 0.1 ng per ug of RELM-alpha. Structural Information: Monomeric. Endotoxin level: <0.1 ng/ug of protein (<1EU/ug). Reconstitution: Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/m. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.

products description :
RELMalpha belongs to a unique family of tissue-specific cytokines termed FIZZ (found in inflammatory zone) and RELM. The three known members of this family; Resistin, RELMalpha and RELMbeta are 85-94 amino acid secreted proteins sharing a conserved C-terminal domain characterized by 10 cysteine residues with a unique spacing motif of C-X11-C-X8-C-X-C-X3-C-X10-C-X-C-X-C-X9-C-C. RELMalpha and Resistin are secreted exclusively by adipocytes while RELMbeta is expressed in the epithelium of the colon and small bowel. The physiological role and molecular targets of RELMalpha re still unknown. Recombinant murine RELMalpha is a 10.0 kDa monomeric protein containing 88 amino acid residues.

uniprot summary :
Function: Probable hormone. Plays a role in pulmonary vascular remodeling. Ref.7. Subunit structure: Monomer. Ref.6. Subcellular location: Secreted. Tissue specificity: Highest levels in adipose tissue. Sequence similarities: Belongs to the resistin/FIZZ family. Sequence caution: The sequence BAB25104.1 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally shortened.
