Recombinant Macaca mulatta Rhesus theta defensin-1/2 subunit B (RTD1B)

• Product Name Alternative:

  RTD-1 subunit B; RTD-1b; Demidefensin-1; RTD-2

• Abbreviation:

  Recombinant Rhesus macaque RTD1B protein

• Gene Name:

  RTD1B

• UniProt:

  P82271

• Expression Region:

  65-73aa

• Organism:

  Macaca mulatta (Rhesus macaque)

• Target Sequence:

  RCLCRRGVC

• Tag:

  N-terminal GST-tagged

• Type:

  Developed Protein

• Source:

  E.coli

• Field of Research:

  Signal Transduction

• Relevance:

  RTD-1 and RTD-2 have similar antimicrobial activities against the Gram-positive bacteria S.aureus 502A and L.monocytogenes, the Gram-negative bacterium S.typhimurium, and the fungi C.albicans 16820 and C.neoformans 271A. RTD-2 is 2-3-fold less active than RTD-1 against E.coli ML35.

• Endotoxin:

  Not test

• Purity:

  Greater than 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

• Activity:

  Not Test

• Form:

  Liquid or Lyophilized powder

• Buffer:

  If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

• Reconstitution:

  We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.

• Molecular Weight:

  28.5 kDa

• Storage Conditions:

  The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.

• Protein Length:
