Introduction
Chondrolectin (CHODL), a type I membrane protein, possesses a carbohydrate recognition domain typical of C-type lectins in its extracellular region. This domain is known to participate in the endocytosis of glycoproteins and foreign sugar-containing pathogens. CHODL protein is primarily found in the perinuclear zone.
Description
Recombinantly produced in E. coli, CHODL Human is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain consisting of 220 amino acids (residues 22-216). It has a molecular weight of 24.6 kDa. The protein includes a 25 amino acid His-tag at the N-terminus and is purified using proprietary chromatographic methods.
Physical Appearance
A clear, sterile-filtered solution.
Formulation
The CHODL solution, at a concentration of 1mg/ml, is prepared in a buffer consisting of 20mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0), 0.15M NaCl, 10% glycerol, and 1mM DTT.
Stability
For optimal storage, refrigerate the product at 4°C if the entire vial will be consumed within 2-4 weeks. For prolonged storage, freeze the product at -20°C. To ensure stability during long-term storage, it is advisable to supplement the solution with a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Repeated freezing and thawing cycles should be minimized.
Purity
SDS-PAGE analysis indicates a purity greater than 90.0%.
