Leptin Antagonist Triple Mutant Rat Recombinant is a single non-glycosilated polypeptide chain containing 146 amino and additional Ala at N-terminus acids and having a molecular mass of ~ 16 kDa.The Rat Leptin antagonist was mutated, resulting in L39A/D40A/F41A mutant.The Rat Leptin antagonist is bound to 20 kDa mono-PEG at N-terminus, resulting in 35.6 kDa. The Rat Leptin triple anatagonist runs as a 48 kDa.Leptin Antagonist Triple Mutant Rat Recombinant was purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Leptin Antagonist Triple Mutant Rat Recombinant in sterile water or sterile 0.4% NaHCO3adjusted to pH 8-9, not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted with other aqueous solutions. Leptin Antagonist Triple Mutant Rat Recombinant half-life in circulation after SC injection was over 20 hours.Leptin Antagonist Triple Mutant Rat Recombinant is capable of inhibiting leptin-induced proliferation of BAF/3 cells stably transfected with the long form of human leptin receptor. Leptin Antagonist Triple Mutant Rat Recombinant in vitro activity is 5-6 fold lower than the non-pegylated antagonist, though in vivo it has profound weight gain effect (as compared to the non-pegylated antagonist), resulting mainly from increased food intake.
