Source

Cynomolgus Melanotransferrin Protein, His Tag (MEN-C52H3) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Gly 20 - Cys 709 (Accession # XP_045243184.1).

Predicted N-terminus: Gly 20

Molecular Characterization
Other Tags and Version Biotin & Other Labeled Version

This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.

The protein has a calculated MW of 77.1 kDa. The protein migrates as 75-90 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

Endotoxin

Less than 0.01 EU per μg by the LAL method / rFC method.

Purity

>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

>95% as determined by SEC-MALS.

Formulation

Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant.

Background

Melanotransferrin (MTF), also known as CD228, P97, MELTF and MFI2, is a cell-surface glycoprotein found on melanoma cells. The protein shares sequence similarity and iron-binding properties with members of the transferrin superfamily. Involved in iron cellular uptake. Seems to be internalized and then recycled back to the cell membrane. Binds a single atom of iron per subunit. Could also bind zinc. MTF expression is low in normal tissues but high in tumor and embryonic tissues. In melanoma MTF is associated with tumor metastasis and angiogenesis and upregulated in lung cancer tissue and cell lines. In the brain MTF is expressed in capillary endothelium but also in the reactive microglia associated with senile plaques in Alzheimer's disease (AD).
