PRODUCT DESCRIPTION:
Recombinant Human BMP-6 produced in E.Coli is a homodimeric, non-glycosylated, Polypeptide chain containing 142 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 15 kDa. 3 additional amino acids were added from the N-terminal Ala-Pro-Thr to increase bacterial expression. The rHuBMP-6 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

SOURCE:
Escherichia Coli.

FORMULATION:
The protein was lyophilized from a concentrated (1mg/ml) solution containing no additives.

PURITY:
Greater than 95.0% as determined by:
(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE

STORAGE:
Although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, it should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution it should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.

SOLUBILITY:
It is recommended to reconstitute in sterile 20mM AcOH (acetic acid) not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

ENDOTOXIN:
Less than 0.1 ng/ug (IEU/ug)
