Product Specific Information

Carrier-Free

Reconstitution:
We recommend that the vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom.
Reconstitute this protein in sterile, distilled water to a concentration of 0.1–1.0 mg/mL. Do not vortex.
Further dilutions should be made in aqueous buffers supplemented with carrier protein, such as 0.1–1.0% BSA.

Storage:
This lyophilized preparation is stable at room temperature for 1 month, but should be kept at -20°C for long-term storage, preferably desiccated.
Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one week at 2°C to 8°C.
For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20°C to -80°C for up to 3 months.
Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.

Target Information

This gene is one of several CC cytokine genes clustered on the p-arm of chromosome 9.
Cytokines are a family of secreted proteins involved in immunoregulatory and inflammatory processes.
The CC cytokines are proteins characterized by two adjacent cysteines.
Similar to other chemokines, the protein encoded by this gene inhibits hemopoiesis and stimulates chemotaxis.
This protein is chemotactic in vitro for thymocytes and activated T cells, but not for B cells, macrophages, or neutrophils.
The cytokine encoded by this gene may also play a role in mediating homing of lymphocytes to secondary lymphoid organs.
It is a high affinity functional ligand for chemokine receptor 7 (CCR7) that is expressed on T and B lymphocytes and a known receptor for another member of the cytokine family (small inducible cytokine A19).
