Molecular Characterization

Other Tags and Version Biotin & Other Labeled Version
This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 26.7 kDa. The protein migrates as 35-45 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
Endotoxin
Less than 0.01 EU per μg by the LAL method / rFC method.
Purity
>90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
>95% as determined by SEC-MALS.
Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in 50 mM Tris, 150 mM NaCl, pH7.5 with trehalose as protectant.

Background
Full-length tissue factor (TF) is a transmembrane receptor and cofactor for factor (F)VII/FVIIa. In addition to full-length TF, an alternative spliced (as) form of TF can be generated that lacks the transmembrane domain and is released fromcells. In contrast to TF, asTF has low procoagulant activity because it lacks the transmembrane domain. Tissue factor is expressed by cells around blood vessels, such as adventitial fibroblasts, and body surfaces, such as epithelial cells, and plays a critical role in hemostasis. TF also contributes to various forms of thrombosis. Many cancers, particularly adenocarcinomas, express high levels of TF. A high level of tumor TF expression is associated with poor prognosis in many types of cancers, including breast, prostate, colorectal, and pancreatic cancer.
