Introduction |
Thrombopoietin is a glycoprotein hormone produced mainly by the liver and the kidney that regulates the production of platelets by the bone marrow. It stimulates the production and differentiation of megakaryocytes, the bone marrow cells that fragment into large numbers of platelets. |
|
Description |
Thrombopoietin Human Recombinant is approximately 80 kDa, consisting of a 332 amino acid residue with a predicted molecular mass of approximately 35 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the recombinant protein migrates with an apparent molecular mass of 80±10 kDa in SDS-PAGE. |

Source |
Chinese Hamster Ovarian Cells (CHO). |
|
Physical Appearance |
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
|
Formulation |
Lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution in water containing 20mM sodium citrate buffer, pH 6.9. |
|
Solubility |
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Thrombopoietin in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
|
Stability |
Lyophilized Thrombopoietin although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution TPO Human should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C.
For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).
Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
|
Purity |
Greater than 97.0% as determined by(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
