Synthetic protein ACTH
OMIM: 176830
3D structure: ModBase 3D Structure for P01189
Purity / Purification
More than 98.0% as determined by:
(a) RP-HPLC analysis.
(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE.
Shape / Format
The protein (1 mg / mL) was lyophilized without additives.
Physical appearance
Sterile Filtered White Lyophilized (lyophilized powder).
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized ACTH in sterile Omega-cm H2O 18M not less than 100 ug/ml, which can then be diluted in other aqueous solutions.
Preparation and storage
Lyophilized adrenocorticotropic hormone, although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18 ° C. After reconstitution, ACTH should be stored at 4 ° C for 2-7 days and for future use below -18 ° C. For long-term storage, it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). cycles.
Other notes
Occasionally, small volumes of synthetic protein ACTH vial (s) may become trapped in the product vial seal during shipping and storage. If necessary, briefly centrifuge the vial in a benchtop centrifuge to dislodge any liquid on the lid of the container. Some products may need to be shipped with dry ice and an additional fee may apply for dry ice.

Description: The molecular formula of adrenocorticotropic hormone is C136H210N40O31S and the molecular weight is 2933.5 Dalton.
Introduction: adrenocorticotropic hormone, as its name indicates, stimulates the adrenal cortex. More specifically, it stimulates the secretion of glucocorticoids such as cortisol and has little control over the secretion of aldosterone, the other important steroid hormone in the adrenal cortex. It stimulates the secretion of adrenal corticosteroids and induces the growth of the adrenal cortex. ACTH, also called tetracosactide, directly activates G proteins. Stimulates the formation of adenylate cyclase and cAMP.
