Human Sclerostin protein, His Tag, expressed in HEK293 Cells
Alternative Names
CDD; SOST1; VBCH; Sclerostin; SOST
Background
Sclerostin, the protein product of the SOST gene, is a potent inhibitor of bone formation. Sclerostin protein is widely expressed at low levels with highest levels in bone, cartilage, kidney, liver, bone marrow and primary osteeoblasts differentiated for 21 days, and was originally identified as an important regulator of bone remodeling, homeostasis, and links bone resorption and bone apposition. Recent studies have revealed that Sclerostin protein inhibits the bone growth probably by binding to the extracellular domain of the Wnt coreceptors LRP5 and LRP6 and disrupting Wnt-induced Frizzled-LRP complex formation.

Protein Length
The recombinant human SOST is a monomeric protein consisting of 197 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 22.5 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent molecular mass of rhSOST is approximately 28 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions..
Others
The Endotoxin level is less than 1.0 EU per ug of the protein as determined by the LAL method Preparation Method: HEK293 Cells
Sequence
Amino acid sequence derived from mature form of human SOST (NP_079513.1) (Gln 24-Tyr 213) was fused with a polyhistidine tag at the N-terminus.
Purity
> 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Storage
Lyophilized Human Sclerostin protein, His Tagshould be stored desiccated below -20°C. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -20°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.49% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
