Olfactomedin-4 (OLFM4), previously called GC-1 (G-CSF stimulated clone-1) is an secreted glycoprotein that is a member of the Olfactomedin/Noelin family of protein . It is expressed in epithelial cells of the prostate, small intestine, colon, bone marrow, and in several cancers , and is up-regulated in epithelial cells during inflammation . Mature OLFM4 is a 490 amino acid (aa) protein that is secreted mainly in a polymeric form which is held together by disulfide bonds and carbohydrate interactions . Mature human OLFM4 shares 71% aa sequence identity with mature mouse and rat OLFM4. Olfactomedin-4 (OLFM4) interacts with cell surface lectins and cadherins, which helps cell adhesion and cell spreading of NIH3T3 and 293T/17 cells . OLFM4 plays a critical role in regulating progression of prostate cancer and is also novel biomarker for triple-negative breast cancer .
Lyophilized from a 0.22 µm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Target:
Olfactomedin-4/OLFM4
Application Dilute:
Lyophilized from a 0.22 µm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Application Notes:
Cross-Reactivity: Centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute to a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/mL in sterile distilled water. Avoid vortex or vigorously pipetting the protein. For long term storage,it is recommended to add a carrier protein or stablizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA,5% HSA,10% FBS or 5% Trehalose),and aliquot the reconstituted protein solution to minimize free-thaw cycles., ResearchArea: Other Recombinant Protein
Recombinant human Olfactomedin-4/OLFM4 Protein was determined by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions with Coomassie Blue.
