Description |
Recombinant Human Endothelial Cell-Specific Molecule 1/ESM-1 is produced by our mammalian expression system in human cells. The target protein is expressed with sequence (W20-R184) of Human ESM1 fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus. |
Names |
Endothelial Cell-Specific Molecule 1, ESM-1, ESM1 |
Accession # |
Q9NQ30 |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20mM PB, 150mM NaCl, pH 7.2 |
Shipping |
The product is shipped at ambient temperature. |
Reconstitution |
Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/ml.
Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 1X PBS.
Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. |
Storage |
Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks.
Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days.
Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months. |
Purity |
Greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC and reducing SDS-PAGE. |
Endotoxin |
Less than 0.1 ng/µg (1 IEU/µg). |

Background |
ESM-1, short from Endothelial cell-specific molecule 1, is expressed in lung, on the vascular capillary network within alveolar walls, and also at lower level in kidney. It is a secretory protein, and can be inducted by TNF and IL1B/interleukin-1beta, but not IL4/interleukin-4. This protein plays great roles in angiogenesis, sprouting, and may have potent implications in lung endothelial cell-leukocyte interactions. |
