MERTK/Mer Protein, Human, Recombinant (mFc)

• Catalog Number: orb1960475
• Category: Proteins
• Description: MER tyrosine kinase (MERTK) encodes a surface receptor localized at the apical membrane of the retinal pigment epithelium. It plays a critical role in photoreceptor outer segment internalization prior to phagocytosis. Mutations in MERTK have been associated with severe autosomal recessive retinal dystrophies in the RCS rat and in humans. MERTK/Mer Protein, Human, Recombinant (mFc) is expressed in HEK293 mammalian cells with C-mFc tag. The predicted molecular weight is 78.9 kDa and the accession number is Q12866-1.
• Tag: C-mFc
• Purity: 98.00%
• MW: 78.9 kDa (predicted). Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 115-140 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.
• UniProt ID: Q12866
• Expression System: HEK293 Cells
• Biological Origin: Human
