Description
TECK Mouse Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 121 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 14.1kDa. The TECK is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Synonyms
C-C motif chemokine 25, Small-inducible cytokine A25, Thymus-expressed chemokine, Chemokine TECK, CCL25, SCYA25, TECK, Ckb15, MGC150327.
Introduction
CCL25 (Teck) is a novel CC chemokine, which is distantly related (about 20% amino acid sequence identity) to other CC chemokines. The mouse CCL25 cDNA has also been cloned and shown to encode a 144 a.a. protein, which exhibits 49% a.a. sequence identity to the human CCL25. Human and mouse CCL25 expression was shown to be greatly restricted to the thymus and small intestine. While dendritic cells are identified as the source of CCL25 production in the thymus, dendritic cells derived from bone marrow do not express CCL25. CCL25 signals through the CCR9 receptor. Teck is possibly involved in T-cell development. Recombinant human and mouse Teck were shown to be chemotactic for activated macrophages, dendritic cells and thymocytes. The recombinant protein demonstrates chemotactic activity on thymocytes, macrophages, THP-1 cells, and dendritic cells but is inactive on peripheral blood lymphocytes and neutrophils.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation
Filtered (0.2µm) and lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in in 1×PBS, pH7.4.
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized TECK in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Stability
Lyophilized TECK although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution TECK should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 97.0% as determined by (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
