Tissue factor, human, recombinant, liquid
Description
Tissue Factor (TF) is a 45 kDa transmembrane cell surface glycoprotein known for its role in initiating coagulation for the past 90 years.(1) TF is comprised of three domains: an extracellular domain (aa 1-219), followed by a hydrophilic spanning domain (aa 220-242) and a cytoplasmic tail (aa 243-263).(2) It functions as a receptor and cofactor for the latent serine proteases factor VII and VIIa.(3,4) Contact between TF and blood is sufficient to initiate the extrinsic pathway of coagulation.
Preparation
ADG45 is full length recombinant human tissue factor. The protein consists of amino acids 1-263, comprising the extracellular, transmembrane and cytoplasmic domains. It is produced by an E. coli expression system.
Purity
Estimated at greater than 98% per SDS gel electro-phoresis and silver staining. ADG45 appears as a single band at approximately 35 kDa.
