Description: Recombinant, tag-free, purified Ebola virus (EBOV) matrix protein (VP40) is expressed in E. coli and the recombinant protein purified using FPLC.
Size: 100 µg of protein is supplied in HEPES buffer pH 7.5 containing sodium chloride, 5% glycerol and 0.1% Triton-X, at a concentration of 1.602 mg/mL. The theoretical molecular weight of the protein is ~35 kDa.
Relevance: Recombinant EBOV VP40 matrix protein provides a means as a control protein for immunoassays and a tool to enhance Filovirus research.
SDS-PAGE & Western Blot: Quality control testing shows a prominent protein band below 40 kDa (VP40).
Storage: -80°C. It is recommended to dispense single-use aliquots and store aliquots at -80°C to avoid multiple freeze/thaw cycles.
