Uniprot Accession
Molecular Weight
Approximately 8.5 kDa, a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 74 amino acids.
Formulation
Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered concentrated solution in 2× PBS, pH 7.4.
Reconstitution
We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Reconstitute in sterile distilled water or aqueous buffer containing 0.1 % BSA to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/ml. Stock solutions should be apportioned into working aliquots and stored at ≤ -20 °C. Further dilutions should be made in appropriate buffered solutions.
Background
Mouse CCL7, also known as MARC, is belonging to the CC chemokine family. It is encoded by the gene CCL7 and was isolated from a mouse mast cell line after Fc epsilon RI triggering by IgE plus antigen. Sequence comparisons suggest that MARC may be the mouse homologue of the human MCP-3 gene. Similar to the human system, MARC/FIC is postulated the Mouse MCP-3. The MCP-3 protein family signals through CCR2 expect MCP-1 and possess cross-reacts across species. CCL7/MCP3 has chemotactic fuction for monocytes and eosinophils, but not for neutrophils.
