Recombinant Human Immunoglobulin J chain (JCHAIN) | CSB-EP011337HU | Cusabio

Alternative Name(s): Joining chain of multimeric IgA and IgM

Gene Names: JCHAIN

Research Areas: Immunology

Organism: Homo sapiens (Human)

Source: E.coli

Tag Info: N-terminal 10xHis-tagged and C-terminal Myc-tagged

Expression Region: 23-159aa

Sequence Info: Full Length of Mature Protein

MW: 20.6 kDa

Purity: Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Relevance: Serves to link two monomer units of either IgM or IgA. In the case of IgM, the J chain-joined dimer is a nucleating unit for the IgM pentamer, and in the case of IgA it induces larger polymers. It also help to bind these immunoglobulins to secretory component.

Storage: The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20?/-80?. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20?/-80?.

Notes: Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4? for up to one week.

Paythway:

Form: Liquid or Lyophilized powder

Buffer: If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20?/-80?. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.
