Bacteria-Derived FTL Recombinant Protein N-6His Tag Lyophilized from Innovative Research has been recombinantly produced in E.coli. The protein formulation is lyophilized from a 0.2 ?m filtered solution of 20mM Tris;250mM NaCl;1mM EDTA;pH9.5. with a purity of > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE..

More Details:

• Species: Human
• Target: FTL
• Purity: > 95 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE..< 1.0 EU per ug as determined by the LAL method.
• Source: E.coli
• Storage Conditions: Lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8? for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20? for 3 months.

Ferritin is a large; iron-storage heteropolymeric protein;which is expressed in most kinds of cells and co-assemble in different proportion in a tissue-specific manner. Ferritin has oligomer of 24 subunits and two types of subunits including light chain(FTL) and heavy chain. Ferritin can remove Fe (?) from solution in the presence of oxygen and is very important for iron homeostasis. Iron is absorbed in the ferrous form and deposited as ferric hydroxides after oxidation. Iron is first oxidized to the ferric state for storage as ferric oxyhdroxide whithin the protein shell of ferritin. Thus; ferritin removes excess iron from the cell sap where it could otherwise participate in peroxidation mechanisms. Ferritin also plays a role in delivery of iron to cells and mediates iron uptake in capsule cells of the developing kidney.
