Recombinant Human Cytokeratin 19 Protein (A60480)

Reconstitute with 18 MO-cm water, to no less than 0.1 mg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Shipped at ambient temperature. Lyophilized: Short term (3 weeks) store at 25°C. Long term store desiccated below -18°C. Reconstituted: Short term (2-7 days) store at 4°C. Long term store below -18°C, it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.

Performed by mixing equimolar amounts of cytokeratins of type I and type II at concentrations of approx. 0.5 mg/ml, both dissolved in 9.5M urea buffer (see above). Protofilaments and filament complexes are obtained by dialyzing the resulting polypeptide solution stepwise to a concentration of 4 M urea and then to low salt condition (50 mM NaCl, 2 mM dithiothreitol, 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 7.4). For immunization purposes, the solution can be further dialyzed against PBS (phosphate buffered saline, e.g. Dulbecco's PBS).
