Stromal cell-derived factor-1 alpha (SDF-1α), the alpha splice variant of the CXCL12 gene, is one of two SDF-1 splice variants made by a wide variety of cells upon stimulation by inflammatory cytokines such as TNF, IL-1, and LPS. SDF-1α signals through the G protein-coupled receptor CXCR4 to recruit activated leukocytes. Human and mouse SDF-1α share 99% sequence identity.
8 kDa (68 aa), monomerUnder non-reducing conditions, samples prepared at higher working concentrations produce a band of ~16 kDa on an SDS PAGE gel, which may represent dimer formation.
