Recombinant Pegylated Human Leptin Quadruple Antagonist is supplied as a recombinant protein for in vitro research use.
Background
Leptin is a~16 kDa protein which is encoded by the obese gene. Leptin is a hormone which participates in regulating body weight, reproductive function and metabolism. leptin is expressed predominantly by adipocytes, which supports the idea that body weight is sensed as the total mass of fat in the body. Smaller amounts of leptin are also secreted by cellsin the epithelium of the stomach and in the placenta. Leptin receptors are highly expressed in areas of the hypothalamus which regulates body weight, as well as in T lymphocytes and vascular endothelial cells.
Product format
Provided as a recombinant protein suitable for in vitro workflows such as binding studies, screening, and assay development. Refer to the specifications table for expression format and molecular properties.
Quality notes
Protein quantization was carried out by UV spectroscopy at 280 nm using the absorbency value of 0.88 as the extinction coefficient for a 0.1% (1mg/ml) solution at pH 8.0. This value is calculated by the PC GENE computer analysis program of protein sequences (IntelliGenetics).
