Synonyms
Nucleobindin-2, DNA-binding protein NEFA, Gastric cancer antigen Zg4, NUCB2, NEFA, Nesfatin.
Introduction
Nucleobindin-2 (also known as NUCB2 or Nesfatin) is a EF-hand calcium-binding protein. Nucleobindin-2 takes part in calcium homeostasis and is a multifunctional protein that interacts with Ca(2+) nucleic acids & various regulatory proteins in different signaling pathways. NUCB2 (Nesfatin) is localized in neuronal perikarya and dendrites of mouse brain.
Description
The Recombinant Human NUCB2 (Nesfatin) produced in E.coli has a molecular mass of 9.7kDa containing 82 amino acid residues of the human NUCB2.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.
Formulation
The NUCB2 protein was lyophilized from a 0.2µm filtered concentrated solution in 1×PBS, pH 7.4.
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized NUCB2 in sterile 18M-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Stability
Lyophilized NUCB2 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution NUCB2 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.
