Description
Accession
P80075
Source
Optimized DNA sequence encoding HumanMCP-3(CCL7) mature chain was expressed in Escherichia Coli.
Molecular weight
Human MCP-3, generated by the proteolytic removal of the signal peptide and propeptide and has a calculated molecular mass of approximately9 kDa. RecombinantMCP-3 is a monomeric protein consisting of77amino acid residue subunits and migrates as an approximately9 kDa protein under non-reducing conditions and reducing conditions in SDS-PAGE.
Purity
>97%, as determined by SDS-PAGE and HPLC
Biological Activity
The ED(50) was determined by the dose-dependent chemo-attraction of PBMC cells and was found to be ≤ ng/ml, corresponding to a specific activity of >x units/mg.

Endotoxin
Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/µg(1EU/µg).
Presentation
MCP-3 was lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filteredmM PB solution pH.5,mM NaCl.
Reconstitution
A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 mg/mL. This solution can then be diluted into other buffers.
Storage
The lyophilized protein is stable for at least years from date of receipt at -20° C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at2° -8° C for one month, or at -20° C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Methods
Degradation of MCPs
- Recombinant human CCL2, CCL7, CCL8 and CCL13 possessing an N-terminal glutaminyl residue were dissolved in 25 mM Tris/HCl pH 7.6 at a final concentration of 10 µg/ml.
- MCPs were either pre-incubated with recombinant human QC (0.6 µg/mlet al, 1-76) was either pre-incubated with recombinant human QC and subsequently incubated with human plasma or incubated with human plasma without QC.
- All samples were analysed using Maldi-TOF-MS.
