Description | Leptin is a hormone secreted from white adipocytes and plays important role in the regulation of food intake and energy balance. Leptin functions via signaling pathways involving OB-R in hypothalamus. In mammals, leptin is mainly produced by the adipose tissue and encodes body fat reserves, acting as a short-term satiety signal. In fish, the presence of a leptin-like peptide was first evidenced by immuno-cross-reactivity, and its existence was certainly demonstrated after the finding by synteny of a leptin sequence in the pufferfish. |

Construction | Pro22-Cys171 |
Protein Purity | Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. (QC verified) |
Molecular Weight | 17 KDa (reducing condition) |
Endotoxin | < 0.1 ng/µg (1 EU/µg) as determined by LAL test. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from a solution filtered through a 0.22 μm filter, containing 20 mM Citrate, 8% Trehalose, 4% Mannitol, 0.02% Tween 80 (w/v), pH 5.5. |
Reconstitution | Reconstitute the lyophilized protein in distilled water. The product concentration should not be less than 100 μg/ml. Before opening, centrifuge the tube to collect powder at the bottom. After adding the reconstitution buffer, avoid vortexing or pipetting for mixing. |
Stability & Storage | Lyophilized powders can be stably stored for over 12 months, while liquid products can be stored for 6-12 months at -80°C. For reconstituted protein solutions, the solution can be stored at -20°C to -80°C for at least 3 months. Please avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles and store products in aliquots. |
Shipping | In general, Lyophilized powders are shipping with blue ice. Solutions are shipping with dry ice. |
