ECM1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His)

ECM1 Protein, an extracellular matrix protein, is involved in various biological processes, including skin development, wound healing, and angiogenesis. It supports cell adhesion and migration, and regulates the structure and function of the extracellular matrix. Understanding the functions of ECM1 Protein is important for studying tissue remodeling and developing therapeutic strategies for ECM1-related disorders and diseases. ECM1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived ECM1 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag. The total length of ECM1 Protein, Mouse (HEK293, His) is 540 a.a., with molecular weight of 80-95 kDa.

ECM1, a multifaceted protein, serves as a crucial participant in endochondral bone formation, acting as a negative regulator of bone mineralization. Beyond its role in bone development, ECM1 demonstrates its influence on vascular processes by stimulating endothelial cell proliferation and promoting angiogenesis. Furthermore, the protein exhibits inhibitory effects on MMP9 proteolytic activity, revealing its regulatory function in extracellular matrix remodeling. ECM1 engages in various molecular interactions, including binding to HSPG2 via its C-terminus and forming complexes with EFEMP1/FBLN3 and LAMB3. Additionally, ECM1 interacts directly with MMP9, emphasizing its involvement in the modulation of matrix metalloproteinase activity. The diverse roles and interactions of ECM1 underscore its significance in orchestrating processes related to bone formation and vascular function.

1.Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to support the adhesion of HFF Human skin fibroblast cells. When 5 × 10⁴ cells/well are added to mECM1-His coated plates (2.5 μg/mL and 100 μL/well), approximately > 30% will adhere specifically after 90 minutes at 37°C.
2.Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to support the adhesion of the B16F1 mouse melanoma cells. The adhesion rate for this effect is 69.70% in the presence of 10 μg/mL rmECM-1.

  Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Lyophilized powder

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH₂O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Stored at -20°C for 2 years. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
