Recombinant Human Noggin Protein

Instructions

Centrifuge before reopening the tube. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. It is recommended to reconstitute the concentration to greater than 100 μg /mL.

After reconstitution, the protein can be stored at -80°C for 3-6 months and at 2-8°C for 2-7 days. For optimal storage, aliquot the protein and minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Specifications

Applications

Noggin is a secreted dimeric glycoprotein that is widely expressed in vertebrates and has high homology among different vertebrate species . Noggin is the main metabolite that regulates the formation of ectoderm-, mesoderm-, and endoderm-derived tissues, and plays a key role in bone development, joint formation, and neural tube fusion. Noggin regulates the BMP signaling pathway by binding to BMP proteins and preventing them from binding to receptors. As an antagonist of BMPs, Noggin prevents chondrocyte proliferation and thus regulates the normal formation of joints. When culturing human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) or neural stem cells under certain conditions, adding Noggin to antagonize BMP activity can allow stem cells to proliferate while maintaining their undifferentiated state.

Storage

Store below -20°C
