EPO 3000iu
Glycoprotein Cytokine Reference Material | Laboratory Use Only
Erythropoietin (EPO) is a 165-amino-acid glycoprotein hormone that regulates red blood cell development. It binds the erythropoietin receptor (EpoR) on erythroid progenitor cells and activates JAK2-dependent signaling. This recombinant material is supplied for laboratory studies of hematopoietic signaling and oxygen-sensing biology in cell-based and preclinical models.

Product Overview
- Compound: Recombinant human erythropoietin (rHuEPO)
- CAS number: 11096-26-7
- Class: Glycoprotein cytokine; about 40% of its mass is carbohydrate, which is required for biological activity
- Molecular weight: About 30.4 kDa (theoretical); apparent size on gels is often reported near 34 kDa because of glycosylation
- Expression system: Typically Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells (confirm your supplier's system)
- Strength and format: Lyophilized powder; confirm strength and units against the COA
- Purity and activity: Per COA (purity by HPLC or SDS-PAGE, and bioactivity where tested)
- Documentation: Lot-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA)
