Format
Lyophilized
Rekonstitution
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
Buffer
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 50 mM TrisHCl, 10 mM CaCl2, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.5 .
Handhabung
Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting.
Lagerung
4 °C/-20 °C/-80 °C
Informationen zur Lagerung
Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.
Retinol Binding Protein 4 (RBP4) is a member of the Lipocalin family and in the blood. RBP4 is the specific vector for retinol. RBP4 is expressed and secreted by adipose tissue, and is associated with insulin resistance. RBP4 delivers retinol from the liver stores to the peripheral tissues. In plasma, the RBP-retinol complex interacts with transthyretin to prevents its loss by filtration through the kidney glomeruli. Defects in RBP4 cause retinol-binding protein deficiency and can cause night vision problems. Alternative Names: Retinol-Binding Protein 4, Plasma Retinol-Binding Protein, PRBP, RBP, RBP4
