Description |
Recombinant Mouse Ephrin-A5/Efna5 is produced by our mammalian expression system in human cells. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Gln21-Gln206) of Mouse Ephrin-A5 fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus. |
Names |
Ephrin-A5, AL-1, EPH-related receptor tyrosine kinase ligand 7, Epl7, Eplg7, Lerk7, Efna5, |
Accession # |
O08543 |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS,pH 7.4 |
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 |
Ephrin-A5 is a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored protein of the ephrin-A subclass of ephrin ligands that binds to the EphA subclass of Eph receptors. Ephrin-A5 has also been shown to bind to the EphB2 receptor. It is crucial for migration, repulsion and adhesion during neuronal, vascular and epithelial development. Ephrin-A5 binds promiscuously Eph receptors residing on adjacent cells, leading to contact-dependent bidirectional signaling into neighboring cells. The signaling pathway downstream of the receptor is referred to as forward signaling while the signaling pathway downstream of the ephrin ligand is referred to as reverse signaling. |
