Introduction
Vaspin (visceral adipose-specific SERPIN), a newly identified adipokine, which is a member of serine protease inhibitor family. Vaspin is also a unique insulin sensitizing adipocytokine in obesity. A recent publication indicates that induction of human vaspin mRNA expression in adipose tissue is regulated in a fat depot-specific manner and could be associated with parameters of obesity, insulin resistance, and glucose metabolism.
Description
Vaspin Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, His Tag, polypeptide chain containing 415 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 47 kDa.
The Vaspin is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
Vaspin in 20mM Tris pH-8, 0.2mM PMSF and 10% glycerol.
Stability
Liquid Vaspin although stable at 10°C for 1 week, should be stored below -18°C.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
