Foundational characteristics of cancer include proliferation, angiogenesis, migration, evasion of apoptosis, and cellular immortality. Find key markers for these cellular processes and antibodies to detect them.
The SUMOplot™ Analysis Program predicts and scores sumoylation sites in your protein. SUMOylation is a post-translational modification involved in various cellular processes, such as nuclear-cytosolic transport, transcriptional regulation, apoptosis, protein stability, response to stress, and progression through the cell cycle.
The Autophagy Receptor Motif Plotter predicts and scores autophagy receptor binding sites in your protein. Identifying proteins connected to this pathway is critical to understanding the role of autophagy in physiological as well as pathological processes such as development, differentiation, neurodegenerative diseases, stress, infection, and cancer.
Insulin, Bovine
- SPECIFICATION
- CITATIONS
- PROTOCOLS
- BACKGROUND
| Primary Accession | P01317 |
|---|---|
| Species | Bovine |
| Sequence | Phe25-Ala54 & Gly85-Asn105 |
| Purity | ≥ 95% as analyzed by SDS-PAGE |
| Endotoxin Level | < 0.1 EU/ µg of protein by gel clotting method |
| Biological Activity | ED50 < 1.00 µg/ml as determined by a dose-response proliferation assay using human MCF7 epithelial cells. Based on the ED50, the calculated specific activity is approximately > 1× 103 IU/mg. It is recommended to experimentally determine the optimal concentration for each specific application by performing a dose response assay. |
| Expression System | P. pastoris |
| Theoretical Molecular Weight | 5.72 kDa |
| Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2 µm filtered solution in 10 mM Citric acid, pH 2.0-3.0. |
| Reconstitution | Before opening, centrifuge the vial briefly to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute the lyophilized powder in ddH2O up to 1 mg/ml. |
| Storage & Stability | Upon receiving, the lyophilized product remains stable for up to 6 months at lower than -70 °C. Upon reconstitution, the product is stable for up to 1 week at 4 °C or up to 3 months at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles by making single-use aliquots before the solution is stored at -20 °C. |
| Other Names | Insulin, Insulin B chain, Insulin A chain, INS |

| Target Background | Insulin is a peptide hormone produced exclusively by beta cells of the pancreatic islets. The mature form of insulin is a heterodimer of a B chain and an A chain linked by two disulfide bonds. The amino acid sequence of insulin is strongly conserved and varies only slightly between species. Bovine insulin differs from human in only three amino acid residues, and porcine insulin in one. Insulin is considered to be the main anabolic hormone of the body and regulates the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats and protein by promoting the absorption of glucose from the blood into liver, fat and skeletal muscle cells. Decreased or absent insulin activity results in diabetes. Recombinant insulin has been widely used for treatment of diabetes. |
| Name | INS |
|---|---|
| Function | Insulin decreases blood glucose concentration. It increases cell permeability to monosaccharides, amino acids and fatty acids. It accelerates glycolysis, the pentose phosphate cycle, and glycogen synthesis in liver. |
| Cellular Location | Secreted. |
