Product Description

Recombinant Human LIF is a research-use recombinant protein from ELK Biotechnology preparation representing LIF supplied as Lyophilized. Review the expression, purity, formulation and storage specifications below before selecting it for an assay or functional workflow.

Description

Recombinant Human Leukemia Inhibitory Factor is produced by our E.coli expression system and the target gene encoding Ser23-Phe202 is expressed.

Background

Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF) is a lymphoid factor that promotes long-term maintenance of embryonic stem cells by suppressing spontaneous differentiation. LIF has a number of other activities including cholinergic neuron differentiation, control of stem cell pluripotency, bone and fat metabolism, mitogenesis of certain factor dependent cell lines and promotion of megakaryocyte production in vivo. Human and murine mature LIF exhibit a 78% sequence identity at the amino acid level. Human LIF is equally active on human and mouse cells. Murine LIF is approximately 1000 fold less active on human cells than human LIF.

Handling information

Reconstitution Always centrifuge tubes before opening.Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100µg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
Delivery condition The product is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature listed below.
