• Protein/Peptide Type: Recombinant Protein
• Gene: LUM
• Purity: >90%, by SDS-PAGE

Applications/Dilutions

• Dilutions:
  • SDS-Page
• Application Notes: Denatured protein is most likely not the best option for functional studies. It is better suited for Western Blot (WB) or imaging assays.
• Theoretical MW: 39 kDa.
  Disclaimer note: The observed molecular weight of the protein may vary from the listed predicted molecular weight due to post translational modifications, post translation cleavages, relative charges, and other experimental factors.

Packaging, Storage & Formulations

Background

Lumican Protein is a member of the small leucine-rich proteoglycan (SLRP) family that includes decorin, biglycan, fibromodulin, keratocan, epiphycan, and osteoglycin. In these bifunctional molecules, the protein moiety binds collagen fibrils and the highly charged hydrophilic glycosaminoglycans regulate interfibrillar spacings. Lumican is the major keratan sulfate proteoglycan of the cornea but is also distributed in interstitial collagenous matrices throughout the body. Lumican may regulate collagen fibril organization and circumferential growth, corneal transparency, and epithelial cell migration and tissue repair. Recombinant human LUM protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli.
