Description   Monocyte Chemotactic Protein-3 (MCP3) and CCL7 are two monocyte chemotactic proteins produced by human MG63 osteosarcoma cells. Both MCP3 and CCL7 are members of the CC family of chemokines and share 62% and 71% amino acid sequence identity, respectively, with MCP1. CCL7 also shares 58% amino acid identity with MCP3.Similarly to other CC chemokines, all three MCP proteins are monocyte chemoattractants. In addition, the three MCPs can chemoattract activated NK cells as well as CD4+ and CD8+ T lymphocytes. All three cytokines have also been shown to attract eosinophils and induce histamine secretion from basophils.
Molecular Weight   Approximately 8.5 kDa, a single non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 74 amino acids.
Purity   > 95 % by SDS-PAGE and HPLC analyses.
Storage   This lyophilized preparation is stable at 2-8 °C, but should be kept at -20 °C for long term storage, preferably desiccated. Upon reconstitution, the preparation is stable for up to one week at 2-8 °C. For maximal stability, apportion the reconstituted preparation into working aliquots and store at -20 °C to -70 °C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
