Human CellExp™CFD/Adipsin, human recombinant

CFD/Adipsin

Complement factor D (CFD) is also known as Adipsin, C3 convertase activator, Properdin factor D (PFD), which contains one peptidase S1 domain and belongs to the peptidase S1 family. CFD / Adipsin cleaves factor B when the latter is complexed with factor C3b, activating the C3bbb complex, which then becomes the C3 convertase of the alternate pathway. CFD / Adipsin is a serine protease that stimulates glucose transport for triglyceride accumulation in fats cells and inhibits lipolysis. Defects in CFD / Adipsin are the cause of complement factor D deficiency which predisposes to invasive meningococcal disease.

N/A

This protein rh CFD / Adipsin is fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus, and has a calculated MW of 25.2 kDa. The predicted N-terminus is Ile 26. DTT-reduced Protein migrates as 25 kDa in SDS-PAGE.

Lyophilized

Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in 50 mM Tris, 100 mM NaCl, pH 7.5. Normally Mannitol or Trehalose are added as protectants before lyophilization.

Centrifuge the vial prior to opening. Reconstitute in PBS, pH 7.4. Do not vortex.

For Research Use Only! Not to be used in humans

Human proteins, cDNA and human recombinants are used in human reactive ELISA kits and to produce anti-human mono and polyclonal antibodies. Modern humans (Homo sapiens, primarily ssp. Homo sapiens sapiens). Depending on the epitopes used human ELISA kits can be cross reactive to many other species. Mainly analyzed are human serum, plasma, urine, saliva, human cell culture supernatants and biological samples.
