Recombinant Mouse MCP-2 (CCL8)
Gene Names
Ccl8; HC14; Mcp2; MCP-2; Scya8; AB023418; 1810063B20Rik
Purity
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Synonyms
MCP-2 (CCL8); N/A; Recombinant Mouse MCP-2 (CCL8); C-C motif chemokine 8; Monocyte chemotactic protein 2; MCP2; Small-inducible cytokine A8; Mcp2; Scya8; Recombinant Mouse Monocyte Chemoattractant Protein-2 (CCL8); MCP-2 active protein
Host
E Coli
Purity/Purification
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE
Form/Format
Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered 20 mM PB solution pH 7.5, 100 mM NaCl.
Sequence Length
97
Bioactivity
The ED(50) was determined by the dose-dependent chemo-attraction human PBMC using a range of 10-100 ng/mL.
Endotoxin Level
<1.0 EU/ug of recombinant protein as determined by the LAL method.
Reconstitution
A quick spin of the vial followed by reconstitution in distilled water to a concentration not less than 0.1 mg/mL. This solution can then be diluted into other buffers.
Preparation and Storage
The lyophilized protein is stable for at least one year from date of receipt at-70 degree C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at 2-8 degree C for one month, or at-20 degree C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Related Product Information for MCP-2 active protein
Monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP-2) is a C-C chemokine. It shares over 60% amino acid identity with MCP-1 and MCP-3 and has about 30% identity with other C-C chemokines MIP-1 alpha, RANTES, and MIP-1 beta. MCP-2 is chemotactic for and activates a wide variety of inflammatory cells. Also, its spectrum of action on leukocytes is similar to that of MCP-3. The leukocytes affected are monocytes, T lymphocytes, natural killer cells, basophils, mast cells, and eosinophils-differs from MCP-1 which is not active on eosinophils. MCP-2 has been proposed to interact with multiple C-C chemokine receptors, including those used by MCP-1 and MCP-3. However, since leukocytes express a multiplicity of chemokine receptors with promiscuous binding and functional properties, it is difficult to identify the receptors used by a given ligand on these cells.

Product Notes
The MCP-2 ccl8 (Catalog #AAA214330) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MCP-2 (CCL8), Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
