Her4, a member of the EGF receptor family, plays a variety of roles in physiological and pathological states. Genetic studies have indicated a link between Her4 and type 2 diabetes and obesity. Her4 may play an important role in glucose homeostasis and lipogenesis. Her4 deficiency-related obesity and adipose tissue inflammation may contribute to the development of MetS. Specifications Synonyms p180erbB4; 4ICD; E4ICD; HER4; ErbB4; MGC138404; ALS19 Uniprot No. Q15303-1 Source Recombinant Biotinylated Human Her4/ErbB4 Protein is expressed from HEK293 Cells with His tag and Avi tag at the C-terminal. It contains Gln26-Pro651. Molecular Weight The protein has a predicted MW of 72.7 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 75-110 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result. Physical Appearance Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. Purity > 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC Endotoxin < 1.0 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method. Formulation Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization. Reconstitution Centrifuge tubes before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/mL is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Storage The products are shipped with ice pack and can be stored at -20℃ for 1 year. 2-7 days, 2 to 8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.3 -6 months, -20 to -80°C under sterile conditions after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
