Specifications

Product Data
Species	Human
Protein Source	Human
Expression cDNA Clone or AA Sequence	Protein Sequence (showhide) Ala22-Ala198
Tag	N-Fc
Buffer	Lyophilized from a 0.2 um filtered solution of 20mM PB, 150mM NaCl, pH 7.4.
Note	Recombinant Human Angiopoietin-like protein 8 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Ala22-Ala198 is expressed with a Fc tag at the N-terminus.
Storage	Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.
Stability	12 months from date of despatch
Reference Data
Locus ID	55908
UniProt ID	Q6UXH0
Synonyms	Betatrophin;Angiopoietin-like protein 8;Lipasin;Angptl8
Summary	The protein specifically promotes pancreatic beta cell proliferation and beta cell mass expansion, thereby improving glucose tolerance. It promotes pancreatic beta cell proliferation without insulin resistance. Also it acts as a blood lipid regulator by regulating serum triglyceride levels and possibly by promoting ANGPTL3 cleavage. It interacts with ANGPTL3. It predominantly expressed in liver and also expressed in adipose tissues. The ability of the protein to induce pancreatic beta cell proliferation is promising in diabetes therapy. Betatrophin treatment could supply or replace insulin injections by increasing the number of insulin-producing cells in diabetes.
