Source : Escherichia Coli. FNDC5 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain (a.a 32-143) containing 122 amino acids including a 10 a.a N-terminal His tag. The total molecular mass is 13.8kDa (calculated). Fibronectin Type III Domain Containing 5 (Irisin) is a newly discovered hormone, secreted into circulation by muscle, which acts on white adipocytes and promotes WAT 'browning'. r-Irisin can reduce body weight and cause induction of brown adipocyte in vivo, including a capacity for thermogenic energy expenditure mediated by uncoupling protein 1 (UCP-1). Irisin mature protein is comprised of 110 amino acid residues and two potential glycosylation sites. High levels of Irisin can be found in the heart whereas Very low expression is found in the colon, pancreas and spleen, if any.
It is recommended to add 200µl deionized water to prepare a working stock solution of approximately 0.5mg/ml and let the lyophilized pellet dissolve completely. FNDC5 is not sterile! Please filter the product by an appropriate sterile filter before using it in the cell culture.
