Product Description

Recombinant Human CHI3L2 (C-6His) is a research-use recombinant protein from ELK Biotechnology preparation representing CHI3L2 supplied as Lyophilized. Review the expression, purity, formulation and storage specifications below before selecting it for an assay or functional workflow.

Description

Recombinant Human Chitinase 3-Like Protein 2 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Tyr27-Leu390 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus.

Background

Chitinase 3-Like Protein 2 (CHI3L2) is a 39 kDa secreted glycoprotein which belongs to the glycosyl hydrolase 18 family and the most closely related to human cartilage glycoprotein 39, which promotes the growth of human synovial cells as well as skin and fetal lung fibroblasts. Highest expression of CHI3L2 is in chondrocytes, followed by synoviocytes, lung and heart. It is not detected in spleen, pancreas, and liver. CHI3L2 may also be expressed in developing brain and placenta. Increased levels of CHI3L2 have been demonstrated in synovial fluids of patients with rheumatoid or osteoarthritis as well as in some other pathologies and in malignant tumors, particularly in glioblastomas. CHI3L2 may bind glycan structure with high affinity, but not heparin. It has has no chitotriosidase activity, but is likely to bind some type of glycan.

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.
