Description
Leptin Human produced syntheticaly contains 35 amino acids (22-56 a.a.) having a molecular mass of 3950.6 Dalton.
Synonyms
OB Protein, Obesity Protein, OBS, Obesity factor, Leptin.
Introduction
A 16kDa peptide hormone secreted from white adipocytes and implicated in the regulation of food intake and energy balance. Leptin provides the key afferent signal from fat cells in the feedback system that controls body fat stores.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation
The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution with no additives.
Stability
Lyophilized Leptin although stable at room temperature, should be stored desiccated below -20°C. Reconstituted Leptin is best stored refrigerated at 4°C.
Purity
