Description of Human TGF-beta3
Recombinant human TGF-β3 is a 25.0 kDa protein composed of two identical 112 amino acid polypeptide chains linked by a single disulfide bond. The three mammalian isoforms of TGF-β, TGF-β1, β2, β3, signal through the same receptor and elicit similar biological responses. They are multifunctional cytokines that regulate cell proliferation, growth, differentiation and motility as well as synthesis and deposition of the extracellular matrix. They are involved in various physiological processes including embryogenesis, tissue remodelling and wound healing. They are secreted predominantly as latent complexes, which are stored at the cell surface and in the extracellular matrix. The release of biologically active TGF-beta isoform from a latent complex involves proteolytic processing of the complex and /or induction of conformational changes by proteins such as thrombospondin-1. The physiological role of TGF-β3 is still unknown but its expression pattern suggests a role in the regulation of certain development processes.
Biological Activity
The ED50 of ≤ 0.05 ng/ml was determined by TGF-β3’s ability to inhibit the mouse IL-4-dependent proliferation of mouse HT-2 cells. It corresponds to a specific activity of ≥ 2 x 107 units/mg.
Reconstitution
We recommend a quick spin followed by reconstitution in 5-10mM Citric Acid to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Do not vortex. This solution can be stored at 2-8°C for up to 1 week. For extended storage, it is recommended to further dilute in a buffer containing a carrier protein (example 0.1% BSA) and store in working aliquots at -20°C to -80°C.
Stability
The lyophilized protein is stable at room temperature for up 1 month. Working aliquots stored with a carrier protein are stable for at least 3 months at -20°C to -80°C. Please avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles.
