Cat. No.	Z102505
Name	Recombinant Human Maspin (SerpinB5) (E. coli)
Description	Mammary serine protease inhibitor (Maspin) is a non-inhibitory tumor suppressor serpin that is encoded by the SERPINB5 gene. Playing an important role in embryonic development in cell adhesion, Maspin has the ability to suppress the growth, invasion, and metastasis of breast and lung tumors. However, Maspin does not exhibit any serine protease inhibitor activity since it does not undergo the conformational transition from stressed to relaxed found in typical serpins. It is expressed in normal breast and prostatic epithelial cells, but downregulated in most breast carcinoma.

How do I choose the right growth factor for my experiment?

Cell type: Different cells respond to different growth factors. Choose a growth factor that promotes the growth or differentiation of your target cell type.
Desired outcome: Whether you are studying proliferation, differentiation, or survival, different growth factors will promote different cellular behaviors.
Concentration and formulation: Different experiments may require varying concentrations of growth factors.

	What is the shelf life and storage condition of this product?
	The lyophilized protein is stable for at least one year from date of receipt at -70°C. Upon reconstitution, this cytokine can be stored in working aliquots at 2° - 8°C for one month, or at -20°C for six months, with a carrier protein without detectable loss of activity. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
