Protein Concentration
25µg size is bottled at 0.2mg/mL concentration. 100 µg size is supplied at a lot-specific concentration.
Storage and Handling
Briefly centrifuge the vial upon receipt. An unopened vial can be stored at 4°C for up to 2 weeks, or at -20°C or below for up to six months. The protein may be further diluted to 0.1 mg/mL using 0.22 µm-filtered PBS buffer (pH 7.4). For long-term storage, the diluted stock solution should be aliquoted and stored at ≤ –70°C to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. If additional dilution is required, carrier proteins such as FBS or BSA should be added to maintain protein stability.
Background Information
Mesothelin (MSLN), also known as CAK1, is a 70 kDa cell-surface protein cleaved into MPF (30 kDa) and mesothelin (40 kDa). MPF acts as a cytokine, while mesothelin is membrane-bound via glycosylphosphatidylinositol. It is overexpressed in various cancers, including mesotheliomas and ovarian cancer, and interacts with MUC16/CA-125, a cancer biomarker. Elevated mesothelin levels in serum make it a target for diagnostics and therapies, such as the recombinant immunotoxin SS1P, which has shown promise in clinical trials.
