Cat. No.	Z101435
Name	Recombinant Human EPO (CHO cells)
Description	EPO is predominantly synthesized and secreted by tubular and juxtatubular capillary, endothelial, and interstitial cells of the kidney. Approximately 10-15% of the total amount of EPO comes from extrarenal sources and is predominantly produced by hepatocytes and Kupffer cells of the liver. Approximately 40% of the molecular mass of EPO is due to its glycosylation. Glycosylation is an important factor determining the pharmacokinetic behaviour of EPO in vivo. Non-glycosylated Epo has an extremely short biological half life. Recombinant Human EPO is a glycosylated protein that runs at approximately 35 kDa owing to its glycosylation.
Organism	Human (H. sapiens)
Unit quantity	50 µg
Family	HDGF/S-100/EPO(TPO) Families
Tag	Tag Free
Aliases	DBAL, ECYT5, EP, MVCD2
Gene Symbol	EPO
Gene ID	2056
Accession Number	P01588
Source	CHO cells
Species	Human (H. sapiens)
Appearance	Lyophilized Powder
Molecular Weight	20 kDa
Endotoxin Level	<1.0 EU/µg of recombinant protein as determined by the LAL method
Purity	>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Formulation	Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7)
Function	Activity was determined by the dose-dependent proliferation assay using a factor-dependent human erythroleukemic cell line TF-1 and was found to be less than 0.2ng/ml
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 one year from date of receipt at -70°C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at 2° - 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.
Usage	For research use only. Not for diagnostic or therapeutic use.
Material Citation	If use of this material results in a scientific publication, please cite the material in the following manner: Applied Biological Materials Inc, Cat. No. Z101435

How do I choose the right growth factor for my experiment?

Cell type: Different cells respond to different growth factors. Choose a growth factor that promotes the growth or differentiation of your target cell type.
Desired outcome: Whether you are studying proliferation, differentiation, or survival, different growth factors will promote different cellular behaviors.
Concentration and formulation: Different experiments may require varying concentrations of growth factors.
