| Description | Complement C4 (C4) plays a central role in both the classical and lectin pathways of complement activation, with levels in human plasma ~0.4 mg/ml. C4 circulates in human plasma as a heterotrimer of 205,000 Da in plasma.

C4 circulates in human plasma as a heterotrimer of 205,000 Da in plasma. The three disulfide-linked chains have molecular weights of 93 (alpha), 75 (beta), and 32 (gamma) kDa. These are readily processed to create C4a, C4b or C4c depending on the processed state.

The average chain length of a limit digest is a tetranucleotide.Used for the removal of DNA from protein samples. Deoxyribonuclease I from bovine pancreas has been used in a study to compare several procedures for reducing RNase contamination in preparations of DNase. Deoxyribonuclease I from bovine pancreas has also been used in a study to investigate the effect of the composition of sodium dodecyl sulfate preparations on the renaturation of enzymes after polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis...

Description: Mesothelin (MSLN), also known as CAK1 and ERC, is a glycosylated cell-surface antigen present on normal mesothelial cells and over-expressed in several human tumors. The mesothelin gene encodes a ~70 kDa Purity: >95%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Coomassie® Blue Staining. Description: Mesothelin (MSLN), also known as CAK1 and ERC, is a glycosylated cell-surface antigen present on normal mesothelial cells and over-expressed in several human tumors. The mesothelin gene encodes a ~70 kDa precursor protein that is cleaved at a dibasic proteolytic site into a 40 kDa membrane-bound protein termed MSLN and a 31 kDa shed fragment called megakaryocyte-potentiating factor (MPF) that is released from the cell. Cleaved, human MSLN remains attached to the cell surface via a GPI linkage and shares 58% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat MSLN. In human, alternate splicing generates additional MSLN isoforms that have either an eight amino acid insertion following Ser408 or a substituted C‑terminal region with no GPI anchor. Mesothelin is normally expressed on mesothelial cells in the pleura, pericardium, and peritoneum as well as in the developing and postnatal pancreas. It is up‑regulated in mesotheliomas and a range of carcinomas and adenomas. Mesothelin promotes tumor cell proliferation, migration, anchorage-independent growth, and tumor progression. It is co‑expressed with the tumor antigen CA125/MUC16 on advanced ovarian adenocarcinomas and interacts with this molecule to support cell adhesion. A soluble form of Mesothelin is released from tumor cells into the serum or tissue effusions... Read More |
