Human GLP-1 Recombinant Protein Lyophilized from Innovative Research has been recombinantly produced in E. coli. This is a Lyophilized protein buffered in with a purity of Greater than 98% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC analyses.

Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per and#956;g (1EU/and#956;g)..

More Details:

• Species: Human
• Target: GCG
• Purity: Greater than 98% by SDS-PAGE gel and HPLC analyses.
  
  Endotoxin level is less than 0.1 ng per and#956;g (1EU/and#956;g).
• Source: E. coli
• Storage Conditions: The lyophilized GLP-1 recombinant protein is stable for at least 2 years from date of receipt at -20°C. Reconstituted GLP-1 is stable for at least 3 months when stored in working aliquots with a carrier protein at -20°C. As with any protein, exposing GLP-1 recombinant protein to repeated freeze / thaw cycles is not recommended. When working with proteins care should be taken to keep recombinant protein at a cool and stable temperature.

Additional Information:

GLP-1 is a proglucagon-derived peptide hormone secreted primarily by intestinal L cells during feeding. Its major physiological function is stimulation of pancreatic and#946;-cells to release appropriate amounts of insulin after glucose absorption. Other biological actions exhibited by GLP-1 include suppression of plasma glucagons levels, inhibition of gastric motility, and promotion of satiety. The secretion of GLP-1 from intestinal L cells is stimulated by nutrients, hormones, and neural inputs. On the other hand, insulin has been reported to inhibit GLP-1 release, indicating that a feedback loop mechanism regulates GLP-1 secretion. In addition to being the precursor of GLP-1, proglucagon, whose primary structure is highly conserved in mammalian species, is also the precursor for other members of the glucagon family of peptide hormones including glicentin-related pancreatic peptide (GRPP), glucagons, and GLP-2. Recombinant human GLP-1 is a 3.3 kDa consisting of 31 amino acid residues.
