Introduction
IGFBP5 is a member of the insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP) family and encodes a protein with an IGFBP domain and a thyroglobulin type-I domain. The protein forms a ternary complex with insulin-like growth factor acid-labile subunit (IGFALS) and either insulin-like growth factor (IGF) I or II. In this form, it circulates in the plasma, prolonging the half-life of IGFs and altering their interaction with cell surface receptors. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation
IBP-5 was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution containing 10mM sodium Citrate pH-3.
Stability
Lyophilized IBP5 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution IGFBP 5 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 96.0% as determined by: (a) Analysis by RP-HPLC. (b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Biological Activity
The ED 50 , calculated by its ability to inhibit IGF-II induced proliferation of MCF-7. The expected ED50 for this effect is < 0.4µg/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of > 2500 IU/mg in the presence of 15ng/ml of rHuIGF-II.
