Cat#: | IGF-08THP |
Common Name: | IGF |
Product Name: | GMP Recombinant Human LR3 Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 |
Product Overview: | GMP Recombinant Human LR3 Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 was expressed in E. coli. |
Description: | Long R3 IGF-1 (LR3 IGF-1) is a 9.2 kDa synthetic analog of IGF-1 that is generated by modifying the aa sequence for mature human IGF-1. These modifications include the substitution of an Arg for Glu at position 3 of the mature IGF-1 sequence and the addition of a thirteen aa N-terminal extension, which is derived from methionyl porcine Growth Hormone. These aa changes generate a protein that is still capable of binding to IGF-1 and Insulin receptors, but shows considerably lower affinity binding to IGFBPs compared to wild-type IGF-1. As a result, LR3 IGF-1 has an increased halflife and displays increased biological potency compared to IGF-1. |

Storage: | Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. 12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 °C as supplied. 1 month, 2 to 8 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution. 3 months, -20 to -70 °C under sterile conditions after reconstitution. |
Reconstitution: | We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions. |
