Summary |
Rat CCL7, belonging to the CC chemokine family, is also named as MCP-3, because the sequence comparison suggested that the rat CCL7 is a homologue of the human MCP-3 and is postulated the rat MCP-3. The MCP-3 protein family signals through CCR2 expect MCP-1 and possess cross-reacts across species. CCL7/MCP3 has chemotactic functions for monocytes and eosinophils, but not for neutrophils. Additionally, it can activated NK cells as well as CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes. CCL7 was found to interact with MMP2. |
Source |
Escherichia coli. |
Molecular Weight |
Approximately 8.5 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 74 amino acids. |
Biological Activity |
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biologically active determined by a chemotaxis bioassay using human monocytes is in a concentration range of 10-100 ng/ml. |
Appearance |
Sterile filtered white lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered concentrated solution in 2 × PBS, pH 7.4. |
Endotoxin |
Less than 1 EU/ug of rRtMCP-3/CCL7 as determined by LAL method. |
Reconstitution |
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions. |
Stability and Storage |
Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.- 12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 °C as supplied.- 1 month, 2 to 8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution.- 3 months, -20 to -70 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution. |
