Description

AGER proteins have multiple activities, including binding to S100 proteins, advanced glycation end products, and heparin. It is involved in cellular responses to amyloid, regulation of synaptic potentiation, and cytokine production. AGER Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived AGER protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Background

The AGER gene encodes a protein that exhibits S100 protein binding activity, advanced glycation end-product binding activity, and heparin binding activity. Involved in various processes, including cellular response to amyloid-beta, negative regulation of long-term synaptic potentiation, and positive regulation of cytokine production, AGER acts upstream of or within pathways related to induction of positive chemotaxis, negative regulation of advanced glycation end-product receptor activity, and positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic processes. Predominantly located in the extracellular space and plasma membrane, AGER is expressed across diverse structures such as the alimentary system, brain, genitourinary system, hemolymphoid system gland, and lung. Implicated in multiple diseases, including autoimmune diseases, cardiovascular system diseases, cystic fibrosis, kidney failure, and lupus nephritis, the human ortholog of AGER, known as advanced glycosylation end-product specific receptor, plays a crucial role in diverse physiological and pathological contexts. Notably, its expression is particularly enriched in the adult lung.

Help & FAQs
  • How should lyophilized recombinant proteins be reconstituted and stored?

    1. Before opening the cap, centrifuge the vial at 13000 rpm for 20-30 seconds. This step will ensure that any lyophilized powder that may have adhered to the cap or walls is collected at the bottom of the vial, minimizing the risk of product loss. 2. Taking 10 μg as an example, first add 20 μL of reconstituted solution provided by MCE and use a pipette to gently resuspend the lyophilized protein until it is fully dissolved.. (For most proteins, the reconstitution solution we provide is sterile water. If a diluent other than water is required, it will be indicated in the product's Certificate of Analysis (COA).). 3. Add an additional 80 μL of buffer/culture medium containing carrier protein (either 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS, or 5% trehalose), and then use a pipette to gently mix until uniform. The final concentration is should not be lower than 100 μg/mL. 4. Aliquot at least 20 μL per tube. 5. After aliquoting, store it frozen at a temperature ranging from -20ºC to -80ºC, and it can be preserved for 3 to 6 months.

  • How should solution-form recombinant proteins be stored?

    1. The product can be stored in its original form and diluted as needed upon use. 2. Alternatively, dilute with a buffer/culture medium containing a carrier protein (either 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS, or 5% alginate), mix well by pipetting, and ensure that

  • Why is it necessary to add carrier proteins?

    Carrier proteins are commonly added to enhance the stability of recombinant proteins, preventing them from adhering to the walls of the container during freezing or thawing processes. Plastic tubes have a certain adsorptive capacity for proteins, which may lead to difficulty in separating the protein from the tube walls, resulting in a decrease in the actual concentration of the protein in the solution and thus affecting its activity. To minimize such losses, it is recommended to add a commonly used carrier protein solution prior to the long-term storage of recombinant protein products.

  • Carrier protein types and options?

    In cases where the carrier protein is not expected to influence the experimental outcomes, an appropriate carrier protein, such as 0.1% BSA (Bovine Serum Albumin), 5% HSA (Human Serum Albumin), 10% FBS (Fetal Bovine Serum), or 5% trehalose, can be incorpo
