Thymosin β 4, Human

Thymosin Beta 4 is a naturally occurring peptide. It is found in high concentrations in blood platelets, wound fluid and other tissues in the body. Tβ4 is not a growth factor; rather, it is a major actin regulating peptide. The thymosin beta-4 peptide, if used after a heart attack, might reactivate cardiac progenitor cells to repair damaged heart tissue. Price $180.00 Cat.

Species Human Protein Construction

Thymosin β4 (Ser2-Ser44) Accession # P62328 Purity > 97% as analyzed by SDS-PAGE > 97% as analyzed by HPLC Endotoxin Level < 1 EU/μg of protein by LAL method Biological Activity Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The biological activity determined by its ability to produce a protective effect against hydrogen peroxide in primary lung fibroblasts is in a concentration range of 0.5-10.0 μg/ml. Expression System E. coli Theoretical Molecular Weight 4.9 kDa Formulation Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in 20 mM PB, pH 7.4. Reconstitution It is recommended that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute the lyophilized powder in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Storage & Stability Upon receiving, this product remains stable for 6 months at -70°C or -20°C. Upon reconstitution, the product should be stable for 1 week at 4°C or for 3 months at -20°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
