ED50 ≤ 70 ng/mL, measured by its ability to inhibit EPO dependent proliferation assay using TF-1 human erythroleukemic cells.
Storage Buffer:
In? PBS, pH 7.4 (10% glycerol).
Storage Instruction:
Stored at 4°C for 2-4 weeks, should be stored at -20°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
The erythropoietin receptor is a member of the cytokine receptor family. Upon erythropoietin binding, the erythropoietin receptor activates Jak2 tyrosine kinase which activates different intracellular pathways including: Ras/MAP kinase, phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase and STAT transcription factors. The stimulated erythropoietin receptor appears to have a role in erythroid cell survival. Defects in the erythropoietin receptor may produce erythroleukemia and familial erythrocytosis.
