Protein Construction
A DNA sequence encoding the mature form of human AGER (NP_001127) extracellular domain (Met1-Ala 344) was expressed with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
Reconstitution
It is recommended that sterile water (400ul) be added to the vial to prepare a stock solution of 0.25mg/mL. Concentration is measured by UV.
Activity
1. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA.
2. Immobilized recombinant human AGER-His at 10ug/mL (100uL/well) can bind biotinylated mouse His-S100A1 with a linear range of 15.6-250ng/mL.
3. Measured by its ability to bind biotinylated human S100A1 in functional ELISA.

Preparation and Storage
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -70°C.
Store it under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C upon receipt. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Related Product Information for AGER active protein
Receptor for Advanced Glycosylation End Products (RAGE, or AGER) is a member of the immunoglobulin super-family transmembrane proteins, as a signal transduction receptor which binds advanced glycation endproducts, certain members of the S100/calgranulin family of proteins, high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1), advanced oxidation protein products, and amyloid (beta-sheet fibrils). Initial studies investigating the role of RAGE in renal dysfunction focused on diabetes, neurodegenerative disorders, and inflammatory responses. However, RAGE also has roles in the pathogenesis of renal disorders that are not associated with diabetes, such as obesity-related glomerulopathy, doxorubicin-induced nephropathy, hypertensive nephropathy, lupus nephritis, renal amyloidosis, and ischemic renal injuries. RAGE represents an important factor in innate immunity against pathogens, but it also interacts with endogenous ligands, resulting in chronic inflammation. RAGE signaling has been implicated in multiple human illnesses, including atherosclerosis, arthritis, Alzheimer's disease, atherosclerosis and aging associated diseases.

Product Notes
The AGER ager (Catalog #AAA257986) is an Active Protein produced from HEK293 Cells 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 "RAGE, 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
