Product Specifications for Recombinant Human GM-CSF GMP Protein, CF

Source	E. coli-derived human GM-CSF protein Ala18-Glu144 Produced using non-animal reagents in an animal-free laboratory. Manufactured and tested under cGMP guidelines.
Purity	>97%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by silver stain.
Endotoxin level	<0.10 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
N-terminal sequence Analysis	Ala-Pro-Ala-Arg-Ser-Pro-Ser-Pro-Ser-Thr
Predicted Molecular Mass	14.5 kDa
SDS-PAGE	14 kDa, reducing conditions
Activity	Measured in a cell proliferation assay using TF‑1 human erythroleukemic cells. Kitamura, T. et al. (1989) J. Cell Physiol. 140:323. The ED₅₀ for this effect is 6-30 pg/mL. The specific activity of recombinant human GM-CSF is >1.0 x 10⁷ IU/mg, which is calibrated against the human GM-CSF WHO International Standard (NIBSC code: 88/646).

Scientific Data Examples for Recombinant Human GM-CSF GMP Protein, CF

	Recombinant Human GM-CSF GMP Protein Bioactivity GMP-grade Recombinant Human GM-CSF (Catalog # 215-GMP) stimulates pro-liferation of TF‑1 human erythroleukemic cell line. The ED₅₀ is 6-30 pg/mL.
	Recombinant Human GM-CSF GMP Protein SDS-PAGE 1 μg/lane of GMP-grade Recombinant Human GM-CSF (Catalog # 215-GMP) was resolved with SDS-PAGE under reducing (R) conditions and visualized by silver staining, showing a single band at 14 kDa.
	Recombinant Human GM-CSF GMP Protein Mass Spectrometry MALDI-TOF analysis of GMP-grade Recombinant Human GM-CSF (Catalog # 215-GMP). The major peak corresponds to the calculated molecular mass, 14478 Da. The minor peak at 14673 Da is a matrix-associated artifact of the MALDI-TOF.

Formulation, Preparation and Storage

Carrier Free

What does CF mean?

CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.

What formulation is right for me?

In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: GM-CSF

GM‑CSF was initially characterized as a factor that can support the in vitro colony formation of granulocyte‑macrophage progenitors. It is also a growth factor for erythroid, megakaryocyte, and eosinophil progenitors. GM‑CSF is produced by a number of different cell types (including T cells, B cells, macrophages, mast cells, endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and adipocytes) in response to cytokine or inflammatory stimuli. On mature hematopoietic cells, GM‑CSF is a survival factor for and activates the effector functions of granulocytes, monocytes/macrophages, and eosinophils (1, 2). GM‑CSF promotes a Th1 biased immune response, angiogenesis, allergic inflammation, and the development of autoimmunity (3‑5). It shows clinical effectiveness in ameliorating chemotherapy‑induced neutropenia, and GM‑CSF transfected tumor cells are utilized as cancer vaccines (6, 7). The 22 kDa glycosylated GM‑CSF, similar to IL‑3 and IL‑5, is a cytokine with a core of four bundled
alpha -helices (8‑12). Mature human GM‑CSF shares 63%‑70% amino acid sequence identity with canine, feline, porcine, and rat GM‑CSF and 54% with mouse GM‑CSF. GM‑CSF exerts its biological effects through a heterodimeric receptor complex composed of GM‑CSF R alpha /CD116 and the signal transducing common beta chain (CD131) which is also a component of the high‑affinity receptors for IL‑3 and IL‑5 (13, 14). In addition, GM‑CSF binds a naturally occurring soluble form of GM‑CSF R alpha (15). Human GM‑CSF is active on canine and feline cells but not on murine cells (16‑18).
