Endotoxin levelNot tested
Protein Concentration25µg size is bottled at 0.2mg/mL concentration. 100 µg size is supplied at a lot-specific concentration.
Storage and HandlingBriefly 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


TROP-2, also known as TACSTD2, is a 35.7 kD protein that belongs to the EpCAM family. It is a cell surface receptor that can transduce calcium signals. Mutations of this gene are associated with gelatinous drop-like corneal dystrophy. TROP-2 is highly expressed in a variety of epithelial cancers, making it a potential therapeutic target. The cytoplasmic tail of TROP-2 contains potential phosphorylation sites and a phosphatidyl-inositol binding sequence, suggesting its role in signal transduction. As a member of a family of at least two type I membrane proteins, TROP-2 is closely related to EpCAM, also known as TROP-1, and may play a role in regulating carcinoma cell growth.
