Scientific Background
The three GRO cDNAs encode 107 amino acid precursor proteins from which the N-terminal 34 amino acid residues are cleaved to generate the mature GROs. There are no potential N-linked glycosylation sites in the amino acid sequences. GRO expression is inducible by serum or PDGF and/or by a variety of inflammatory mediators, such as IL-1 and TNF, in monocytes, fibroblasts, melanocytes and epithelial cells. In certain tumor cell lines, GRO is expressed constitutively.Similar to other alpha chemokines, the three GRO proteins are potent neutrophil attractants and activators. In addition, these chemokines are also active toward basophils.

Safety & Handling
This material is offered by USA Bioworld biotech for research, laboratory or further evaluation purposes. NOT FOR HUMAN USE. Made in China
This protein was produced in E. coli expression system. Expression system selection determines glycosylation profile, folding, and post-translational modifications. For cell-based stimulation assays, verify the expression system matches the glycosylation requirements of your target receptor or pathway.
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1% BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at <-20°C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or PBS at 100 µg/mL as a standard starting concentration. Allow to dissolve at 4°C for 30 minutes without vortexing. Prepare working aliquots in 0.1% BSA carrier protein and store at −80°C.
This protein has been validated for functional bioactivity: Fully biologically active when compared to standard. Determined by its ability to chemoattract hCXCR2 transfected 293 cells using a concentration range of 10.0-100.0 ng/ml, corresponding to a Specific Activity of >1 x 104 IU/mg.. Optimal working concentrations may vary depending on your cell type, assay format, and culture conditions. Titrate the protein in a dose-response experiment to determine the optimal concentration for your system.
Endotoxin level is Less than 1EU/mg of rHuGRO-beta/CXCL2 as determined by LAL method. as determined by the LAL method. Low endotoxin is critical for cell-based studies because endotoxin activates NF-κB and TLR4 signalling in immune cells, producing artefactual cytokine induction that can completely mask the true biological activity of the recombinant protein.
This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8°C, but should be kept at -20°C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one week at 2-8°C. F Upon receipt, immediately store at −80°C. Prepare single-use working aliquots to avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Lyophilized protein is stable for 6–12 months at −80°C from the date of receipt.
