Description Human OPG (Osteoprotegerin), also known as OCIF (Osteoclastogenesis inhibitory factor), is a member of the TNF receptor superfamily. Recombinant human OPG/OCIF specifically acts on bone tissues and increases bone mineral density and bone volume associated with a decrease of active osteoclast number. Source: Recombinant protein corresponding to 174aa residues from human OPG, expressed in E. coli. Molecular Weight: ~20kD Biological Activity: Determined by its ability to neutralize the stimulation of U937 cells treated with 10ng/ml of sRANKL. Endotoxin: <0.1ng/ug Storage and Stability: Lyophilized powder may be stored at -20°C. Reconstitute with sterile buffer. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20°C. Reconstituted product is stable for 6 months at -20°C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
