Purity: > 90% by SDS - PAGE Format: Liquid. In 20 mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0) containing 1 mM DTT 10% glycerol. . Pentraxin 3(PTX3) is the prototypic member of the long pentraxin family sharing the C-terminal domain with short pentraxins and containing a unique N-terminal domain. Pentraxin 3 is produced and released at inflammatory sites by diverse cell types including monocytes/macrophages, endothelial cells, vascular smooth muscle cells, fibroblasts, and adipocytes. It plays a role in the regulation of innate resistance to pathogens, inflammatory reactions, possibly clearance of self-components and female fertility. Recombinant human Pentraxin 3 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography.
