-
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL.
Dissolve the lyophilized protein in ddH2O.
Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. - Buffer
- Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20 mM PB, 130 mM NaCl, pH 7.4.
- Handling Advice
- Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting.
- Storage
- 4 °C/-20 °C/-80 °C
- Storage Comment
-
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. - Expiry Date

- Background
-
Beta-Defensin 4A is a membrane-active cationic peptide that functions in inflammation and innate immune responses. There are at least 30 beta-Defensins, which are distinguished from alpha-Defensins by the connectivity pattern of their three intermolecular disulfide bonds. Members of the Defensin family are highly similar in protein sequence. This gene encodes Defensin, DEFB4, which has broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity and may play an important role in innate epithelial defense. They are highly expressed in skin and tonsils, and to a lesser extent in trachea, uterus, kidney, thymus, adenoid, pharynx and tongue. beta-Defensin 4A has low expression in salivary gland, bone marrow, colon, stomach, polyp and larynx. No expression in small intestine. The 45 amino acid mature human BD3 shares 38% and 33% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat BD3, respectively.
