Recombinant Human Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor UFO/Axl Protein (RP01317)

Overview

Product name	Recombinant Human Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor UFO/Axl Protein
Catalog No.	RP01317
Description	Recombinant Human Tyrosine-protein kinase receptor UFO/Axl Protein is produced by HEK293 cells expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Glu33-Pro449) of human Axl (Accession #NP_068713.2) fused with an Fc, 6×His tag at the C-terminus.
Bio-Activity	Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized recombinant Human Gas6 at 2 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Axl, the EC₅₀ of Axl is 1.77 ng/mL.
Purity	> 90% by SDS-PAGE.
Endotoxin	< 0.1 EU/μg of the protein by LAL method.
Formulation	Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Species	Human
Calculated MW	71.89 kDa

Axl receptor tyrosine kinase, together with Tyro3 and Mer, constitute the TAM family of receptor tyrosine kinases. In the nervous system, Axl and its ligand Growth-arrest-specific protein 6 (Gas6) are expressed on multiple cell types. Axl functions in dampening the immune response, regulating cytokine secretion, clearing apoptotic cells and debris, and maintaining cell survival. Axl is upregulated in various disease states, such as in the cuprizone toxicity-induced model of demyelination and in multiple sclerosis (MS) lesions, suggesting that it plays a role in disease pathogenesis. Axl expression correlates with poor prognosis in several cancers. Axl mediates multiple oncogenic phenotypes and activation of these RTKs constitutes a mechanism of chemoresistance in a variety of solid tumors. Axl contributes to cell survival, migration, invasion, metastasis and chemosensitivity justify further investigation of Axl as novel therapeutic targets in cancer. The receptor tyrosine kinase AXL is thought to play a role in metastasis. The soluble AXL receptor as a therapeutic candidate agent for treatment of metastatic ovarian cancer. GAS6/AXL targeting as an effective strategy for inhibition of metastatic tumor progression in vivo.

Usage guide

Storage	Store at -20℃.Store the lyophilized protein at -20℃ to -80 ℃ up to 1 year from the date of receipt. After reconstitution, the protein solution is stable at -20℃ for 3 months, at 2-8℃ for up to 1 week.
Reconstitution	Centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute to a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/mL in sterile distilled water. Avoid vortex or vigorously pipetting the protein. For long term storage, it is recommended to add a carrier protein or stablizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose), and aliquot the reconstituted protein solution to minimize free-thaw cycles.
