Purity: > 85% by SDS - PAGE Format: Liquid. In Phosphate Buffered Saline pH7.4 containing 10% glycerol. CCL20, also known as Macrophage Inflammatory Protein-3 (MIP3A), is a small cytokine belonging to the CC chemokine family. CCL20 protein is strongly chemotactic for lymphocytes and weakly attracts neutrophils. It is implicated in the formation and function of mucosal lymphoid tissues via chemoattraction of lymphocytes and dendritic cells towards the epithelial cells surrounding these tissues. Recombinant human CCL20 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purifed by conventional chromatography, after refolding of the isolated inclusion bodies in a renaturation buffer.
