It is a secreted phosphoglycoprotein that belongs to the clade F subfamily, serpin superfamily of proteinase inhibitors. The PEDF is a Purity＞97% by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.FunctionPigment epithelium-derived factor (PEDF) is encoded by the SERPINF1 gene in humans and found in verebrates. It is a secreted phosphoglycoprotein that belongs to the clade F subfamily, serpin superfamily of proteinase inhibitors. The PEDF is a noninhibitory serpin with neurotrophic, anti-angiogenic, and anti-tumorigenic properties. It is synthesized as a 418 a.a. about 50kDa precursor that contains a 19 a.a. signal sequence and a 399 a.a. mature region that shows a pyroglutamate at Gln20. Like other serpins, it contains three β-sheets, 810 α-helices, and a C-terminal RCL (reactive center loop). Unlike other serpins with Ser protease inhibiting activity. PEDF has functions of inducing extensive neuronal differentiation in retinoblastoma cells, inhibiting of angiogenesis. As it does not undergo the S (stressed) to R (relaxed) conformational transition characteristic of active serpins, it exhibits no serine protease inhibitory activity. PEDF is researched as a therapeutic candidate for treatment of such conditions as choroidal neovascularization, heart disease, and cancer...

TMB produces a deep blue color during the enzymatic degradation of hydrogen peroxide by HRP.TMB-D Blotting liquid ready-to-use substrate is a highly active and stable blotting substrate utilized for measuring HRP probe activity. A stable blue precipitate is formed at the reaction site. The substrate does not contain NMP (1-methyl-2- pyrrolidone) making it REACH Restricted Substances List Annex XVII compliant, while ensuring maximal safety during use, and minimal waste problems after use.Composition & Properties Ready-to-use substrate: Includes substrate buffer and hydrogen peroxide. No other reagents should be added.Working Procedure The following procedure is applicable to nitrocellulose membranes. The procedure must be optimized for other membranes.1.The desired amount of substrate is poured into a sealed container and allowed to reach room temperature, in the dark, before use. 2.After the last incubation with HRP-labelled Streptavidin or HRP-labelled secondary antibody it is recommended to wash the membrane in a 0.1 M Tris buffer pH 7.4.3.Shake off the excess buffer and incubate the membrane in the TMB-D Blotting solution for 10 minutes. 4.Wash the membrane in distilled water and allow it to dry. 5.The site of positive reaction will appear light blue with no or very little background staining.Tips & Tricks • The membrane can be blocked with Kementec’s Synthetic Blocking Buffer for Blotting, (cat. no. S494457). • For long-term preservation of the results, the membranes must be stored in the dark.Handling & Storage • Store solution at 2-8⁰C in the dark. • Avoid exposure to light, heat and contamination with metal ions or peroxidase. • Re-dispense only into bottles made of High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), amber color. Dispensing guidelines are available upon request... Read More | Inquire |
