Stability Test
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37℃ for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate isless than 8% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
-
Storage & Shelf Life
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
-
Shipping
In general, recombinant proteins are supplied as lyophilized powder and shipped at ambient temperature. For bulk packages, the proteins are provided as frozen liquid and shipped with blue ice, unless otherwise requested by the customer.

Protein Description
PMCH (Pro-melanin-concentrating hormone) is a neuropeptide that plays a critical role in various physiological processes, including energy homeostasis, stress response, and reproduction in vertebrates. The research on PMCH recombinantly expressed proteins has gained significant attention due to its potential implications in understanding metabolic disorders and neuroendocrine functions. Originally identified in fish, PMCH has homologs in higher vertebrates, indicating its evolutionary importance. Investigating PMCH at the molecular level allows researchers to elucidate its mechanism of action and interaction with specific receptors in different tissues. Recombinant PMCH proteins offer unique insights into their structure-function relationships, facilitating the development of diagnostic and therapeutic tools for conditions related to hormonal imbalances. In addition, studying PMCH can reveal its role in circadian rhythms and its effects on behavior, making it a valuable target for research in neurobiology and endocrinology. Overall, the exploration of PMCH recombinant proteins underscores the importance of this peptide in diverse biological systems and its potential in contributing to the advancement of medical science.
