Protein Species
Mouse
-
Molecular weight
The recombinant mouse HPX consists of 448 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 50.4 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the rm HPX is approximately 60-70 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions due to glycosylation.
-
Purity
> 98 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
-
Activity
Measured by its ability to bind protoporphyrin IX (PPPIX). Recombinant mouse Hemopexin binds >15 μM PPPIX, resulting in a 50% decrease in the fluorescence signal of mouse Hemopexin.
