Zielbeschreibung

CCN family member 2 (UniProt: P29279; also known as Cellular communication network factor 2, Connective tissue growth factor, Hypertrophic chondrocyte-specific protein 24, Insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 8, IBP-8, IGF-binding protein 8, IGFBP-8) is encoded by the CCN2 (also known as CTGF, HCS24, IGFBP8) gene (Gene ID: 1490) in human. CTGF is a cysteine rich extracellular matrix monomeric protein of the CCN family that is synthesized with a signal peptide (aa 1-26), which is subsequently cleaved off to produce the mature form. It is a key signaling and regulatory molecule involved in different biological processes, including cell proliferation, angiogenesis, and wound healing, and in pathological events, such as tumor development and tissue fibrosis. It also serves as a major connective tissue mitoattractant secreted by vascular endothelial cells that promotes proliferation and differentiation of chondrocytes. Its expression is also observed in bone marrow and thymic cells. Four different domains of CTGF have been described: the insulin-like growth factor binding protein (IGFBP; aa 27-98), von Willebrand factor type C repeat (VWC; aa 101-167), thrombospondin type-1 repeat (TSP1; aa 198-243), and cysteine knot-containing domain (CT; aa 256-330). IGFBP and VWC domains constitute the N-terminal half of CTGF which is separated from the C-terminal half that contains TSP1 and CT domains by a hinge region. Due to the high number of disulfide bridges, most of the CTGF domains are resistant to proteolytic digestion, and most proteases primarily cleave only in the cysteine-free hinge region, producing almost exclusively intact N- and C-terminal half fragments. The truncated CTGF domains (N-terminal fragment and C-terminal fragment), can function independently to stimulate differentiation or proliferation of fibroblast and to increase collagen synthesis. The proper expression of CTGF is essential for physiological processes in of multiple organs. CTGF knockout mice display developmental skeletal malformations, and its high expression is reported to negatively regulate myelination during development and cause a range of neurodevelopmental disorders. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physikalische Form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS with 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Rekonstituierung

300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Lagerung und Haltbarkeit

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
