Description
GP9 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single,
non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 154 amino acids (17-147) and
having a molecular mass of 16.8kDa.
GP9 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus
& purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms
Platelet glycoprotein IX, GP-IX, GPIX, Glycoprotein 9, CD42a, Glycoprotein IX (Platelet).
Introduction
Glycoprotein-9 (GP9) is a small membrane glycoprotein found on the surface of human platelets. GP9 forms a one to one noncovalent complex with glycoprotein Ib, a platelet surface membrane glycoprotein complex which functions as a receptor for von Willebrand factor. The complete receptor complex includes noncovalent association of the alpha and beta subunits with the protein and platelet glycoprotein V. GP9 gene defects cause the Bernard-Soulier syndrome, aka giant platelet disease whose patients have unusually large platelets and have a clinical bleeding tendency.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered colorless solution.
Formulation
GP9 protein solution (1mg/ml) containing 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 2M UREA 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 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
