Description of Human Fas Receptor

sFas Receptor Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 157 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 17.6kDa.The FAS is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Biological Activity

The ED₅₀ was determined by its ability to inhibit the cytotoxicity of Jurkat cells is between 10-15 µg/ml in the presence of 2ng/ml of hFasL.

Reconstitution

It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized FAS in sterile 18M-cm H₂O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

Stability

Lyophilized FAS although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution FAS should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
