Description

Niemann-Pick C2/NPC2 protein is an important member of the NPC2 family and plays an important role in lipid metabolism and transport, helping to regulate intracellular cholesterol homeostasis and lipid transport.Its involvement in cellular processes highlights its importance in maintaining lipid homeostasis.Niemann Pick C2/NPC2 Protein, Rat (HEK293, His) is the recombinant rat-derived Niemann Pick C2/NPC2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Background

The Niemann-Pick C2/NPC2 Protein is a crucial member of the NPC2 family, playing a significant role in lipid metabolism and transport. As part of this family, NPC2 contributes to the regulation of cholesterol homeostasis and lipid trafficking within cells. Its involvement in cellular processes highlights its importance in maintaining cellular lipid balance. The protein's membership in the NPC2 family suggests shared functional characteristics within this protein family, potentially influencing lipid-related pathways and cellular functions. The study of NPC2 provides insights into the broader understanding of lipid transport and metabolism, emphasizing its relevance in cellular homeostasis and potential implications for disorders related to lipid dysregulation.

Molecular Weight

Approximately 19-22 kDa

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

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

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

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

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).

Storage & Stability

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.

Shipping

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

  • Reconstitution Calculator

  • Dilution Calculator

  • Specific Activity Calculator

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
