Calmodulin is a ubiquitous 16.6 kDa protein found in all eukaryote cells that is involved with the control of a large number of calcium sensitive enzymes. It can bind to and regulate a number of different protein targets, thereby affecting many different cellular functions.
Product Details
- Target Species
- Bovine
- Product Form
- Purified calmodulin from bovine brain - lyophilised
- Reconstitution
- Reconstitute to a concentration of 0.1 - 1 mg/ml in distilled water.
Care should be taken during reconstitution as the protein may appear as a film at the bottom of the vial.
Bio-Rad recommend that the vial is gently mixed after reconstitution. - Preparation
- Purified by ion-exchange chromatography followed by gel-filtration.
- Preservative Stabilisers
- 2 mM EDTA.
- Activity
- More than 40,000 units per 1 mg of protein.One unit will stimulate 0.016 activated units of phosphodiesterase, 3'5'-cyclic nucleotide, P 0520, to 50% of the maximum activity of the enzyme when saturated with activator.
- Purity
- > 95%. Determined by SDS-PAGE.
Storage Information
- Storage
- Prior to reconstitution store at -20oC.
After reconstitution store at -20oC.
Storage in frost-free freezers is not recommended. This product should be stored undiluted. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing as this may denature the protein. - Shelf Life
- 12 months from date of reconstitution.
