| Preparation method | E. coli |
| Purity | >95% as determined by SDS-PAGE. |
| Alternative | Inhibin beta A chain, Activin beta-A chain, Erythroid differentiation protein |
| Formulation | The protein was lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered solution containing 1X PBS, pH 7.4. If you have any concerns or special requirements, please confirm with us. |
| Features & Benefits | Endotoxin: <0.1 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method. |
| Molecular weight | 13.1 kDa |
| Usage notes | Always centrifuge tubes before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Human/Mouse/Rat Activin A Protein, His tag (Animal-Free) using the buffer we provided not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
| Storage instructions | Lyophilized protein should be stored at -20°C for 1 year. Upon reconstitution, store at 2°C to 8°C for up to 1 week. Further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein or stabilizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 10%FBS, 5%HSA or 5% trehalose solution), protein aliquots should be stored at -20°C or -80°C for 3-6 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles. |
| Shipping | The product is shipped with blue ice. |

| Background | Activin is the member of the TGF beta superfamily of cytokines. The current understanding of Activin A is classified as a hormone, a Growth Factors, and a cytokine. Depending on the different cell type, that overexpression of Activin A can either inhibit or promote cells division. There are important implications for tumor biology. Activin A also increase joint inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and induces pathogenic mechanisms in the respiratory system. |
