Further Information

Alternate Names/Synonyms:
Fibronectin Type III Domain-containing Protein 5 (cleaved); Fibronectin Type III Repeat-containing Protein 2 (cleaved); FNDC5 (cleaved)
Biological Activity:
Activates brown adipocyte markers Ucp1 and Cidec in murine subcutaneous adipocytes at 10ng/ml [Lit. 1].
Concentration:
0.1mg/ml after reconstitution.
EClass:
32160000
Endotoxin:
<0.01EU/µg purified protein (LAL test).
Form (Short):
liquid
Formulation:
Lyophilized. Contains PBS.
Handling Advice:
After reconstitution, prepare aliquots and store at -20°C.Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.Centrifuge lyophilized vial before opening and reconstitution.PBS containing at least 0.1% BSA should be used for further dilutions.
Long Description:
Protein. Irisin (human, aa 32-143 /mouse, aa 29-140) is FLAG®-tagged at the N-terminus. Irisin has 100% identity between mouse, rat, monkey and human. Source: CHO cells. Endotoxin content: <0.01EU/µg purified protein (LAL test; Lonza). Lyophilized. Contains PBS. Purity: >95% (SDS-PAGE). Irisin is a recently described exercise-induced hormone secreted by skeletal muscle in mice and humans. Irisin activates beige fat cells (beige cells have a gene expression pattern distinct from either white or brown fat and are preferentially sensitive to the polypeptide hormone Irisin). Irisin is cleaved from the type I membrane protein FNDC5 and improves systemic metabolism by increasing energy expenditure.
Molecular Weight:
