Product Details
- Molecular Aliases
- C-C motif chemokine 2; CCL2; HC11; MCAF; MCP-1; HSMCR30; MCP1; SCYA2; SMC-CF; GDCF-2; GDCF2
- Protein Length
- Gln24-Thr99
- Expression System
- HEK293
- Theoretical Molecular Weight
- The protein has a predicted MW of 11.5 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 15-20 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result.
- Purity
- > 90% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE > 95% as determined by HPLC
- Endotoxin
- Less than 1 EU per μg by the LAL method.
- Buffer / Formulation
- Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.
- State
- Lyophilized
- Storage Conditions
- -20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -80°C for 3 months after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
- Reconstitution Advice
- Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for detailed instructions.

Background
Monocyte chemotactic protein-1 (MCP-1) (also referred to as chemokine (C-C motif) ligand 2 (CCL2) is expressed by mainly inflammatory cells and endothelial cells. MCP-1 has been reported to play an important role in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis and considerable evidence supports that the monocyte containing MCPs and macrophage influences the growth of other cell types within the atherosclerotic lesion. This review will focus on the general structure features of MCP-1 and its role in atherosclerosis.
