Description
AFP produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 600 amino acids (19-609a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 67.5kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 57-70kDa). AFP is expressed with a ADP at N-terminus and 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms
Alpha-Fetoprotein,
Alpha-1-Fetoprotein, Alpha-Fetoglobulin, HPAFP, AFPD, FETA, HP, Alpha-fetoprotein.
Introduction
AFP is normally synthesized in the liver, intestinal tract, and yolk sac of the fetus. Antibody to AFP has been shown to be useful in detecting hepatocellular carcinomas (HCC) and germ cell neoplasms, especially yolk sac tumors.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
AFP protein solution (0.5mg/ml) contains Phosphate
Buffered Saline (pH 7.4) and 10% glycerol.
Stability
Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 95.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
