Product Sheet RP2009
Description
BACKGROUND Stem Cell Factor (SCF) is a cytokine made by fibroblasts and endothelial cells. SCF binds to the receptor known as c-Kit (CD117) and is thought to play a critical role in the maintenance or survival of hematopoietic stem cells. Human SCF shows no activity on murine cells, but murine and rat SCF are active on human cells.
Recombinant mouse SCF is a non-glycosylated protein, containing 164 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 18.3 kDa.

Details
Cat. No.:
RP2009
Alternative Name:
c-Kit Ligand, KL, Steel Factor, MGF
Source:
E. coli
Physical Appearance:
Sterile Filtered white lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation:
Recombinant mouse SCF is lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in water containing 10 mM sodium phosphophate buffer, pH 6.5.
Stability:
Lyophilized product is very stable at -20°C. Reconstituted material should be aliquoted and frozen at -20°C. It is recommended that a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is added for long term storage.
Reconstitution:
Centrifuge vial before opening. When reconstituting the product, gently pipet and wash down the sides of the vial to ensure full recovery of the protein into solution. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized product with sterile water at a concentration of 0.1 mg/ml, which can be further diluted into other aqueous solutions.
Protein Content and Purity determined by:
UV spectroscopy at 280 nm.
RP-HPLC calibrated against a known standard.
Quantitation against a known standard via reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE gels.
RP-HPLC calibrated against a known standard.
Quantitation against a known standard via reducing and non-reducing SDS-PAGE gels.
Endotoxin Level:
Endotoxin level, as measured by LAL analysis, is <0.01ng/ug or <0.1EU/ug.
Biological Activity:
The activity is determined by the dose-dependent proliferation of human TF-1 cells and is typically less than 10 ng/ml.
