  Recombinant & Natural Proteins

Key Properties

• Source: Escherichia Coli
• Biological Activity: The interaction of bacterial and recombinant A-layer protein with murine macrophages was directed at determining the effect of A-protein on intracellular events that occur in primed macrophages. This was accomplished by measuring the cytotoxic product produced by peritoneal macrophages when exposed to A-protein coated latex beads. Thioglycolate elicited macrophages exhibited a low level of activation (18% cytotoxicity) that was significantly increased (48% cytotoxicity) in the presence of latex beads. Coating of the latex beads with each of the three A-protein products resulted in an increase of cytoxicity (mean +/- SEM) from 48% to 91%.

• Purity: Greater than 98.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by Gel filtration.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.

Storage & Handling

• Storage: Stability: Lyophilized Bacterial Outer Membrane Protein-A although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon C between 2-7 days and for future use reconstituted OmpA should be stored at 4 below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles
• Form/Appearance: Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
• Buffer/Preservatives: The OmpA protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution with 0.02% NaHCO3.
• Expiration Date: 6 months from date of receipt.
