rLCN2

SYNONYMS
Neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin, NGAL, Alpha-2-microglobulin-related protein, Alpha-2U globulin-related protein, Lipocalin-2, Siderocalin LCN2, p25.

INTRODUCTION
Lipocalin-2 also called Neutrophil Gelatinase Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) belongs to a family of lipocans which include 25 proteins (including a1-microglobulin and b-lactoglobulin), which are characterized by their ability to bind small lipophilic substances in their hydrophobic core. They thereby serve as transporters of substances like retinal, biliverdins & prostaglandins. There are indications that NGAL is involved in modulation of the inflammatory response and is found in the plasma of patients after stroke.

DESCRIPTION
LCN2 Rat Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 201 amino acids (21-198 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 22.9kDa.LCN2 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
