            | Formulation | 
            Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4 | 
        
        
            | Shipping | 
            The product is shipped at ambient temperature. | 
        
        
            | Reconstitution | 
            Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. 
            It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/ml. 
            Dissolve the lyophilized protein in 1X PBS. 
            Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. | 
        
        
            | Storage | 
            Lyophilized protein should be stored at < -20°C, though stable at room temperature for 3 weeks. 
            Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-7°C for 2-7 days. 
            Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months. | 
        
        
            | Purity | 
            Greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC and reducing SDS-PAGE. | 
        
        
            | Endotoxin | 
            Less than 0.1 ng/µg (1 IEU/µg). |

            | Background | 
            Signal Transducer and Activator of Transcription 3 (STAT3) belongs to the transcription factor STAT family. STAT3 contains one SH2 domain and is a transcription factor expressed in most cell types. STAT3 is activated by multiple cytokines and growth factors including: IFN-a, IL-10, IL-6, IL-11, IL-12, IL-2, EGF etc. STAT3 functions as signal transducer and transcription activator that mediates cellular responses to interleukins, KITLG/SCF and other growth factors. In addition, STAT3 may also mediate cellular responses to activated FGFR1, FGFR2, FGFR3 and FGFR4. |
