Species | Human |
Tag | C-His |
Expression Systems | Expi293 |
Keywords | Human; C-His; Expi293 |
Synonyms | 2B4; CD244 antigen; CD244; h2B4; NAIL; NKR2B4; Nmrk; SLAMF4 |
Background | 2B4 (CD244) is expressed by memory-phenotype CD8 T cells and all-natural killer (NK) cells. The ligand for 2B4, CD48, is expressed on hematopoietic cells. 2B4 is conserved in humans and mice, and several reports have linked 2B4 with the activation of lymphocytes. Engagement of 2B4 on NK cell surfaces with specific antibodies or CD48 can trigger cell-mediated cytotoxicity, interferon γ secretion, phosphoinositol turnover, and NK cell invasiveness. |
Source | Recombinant Human 2B4/CD244/SLAMF4 Protein is expressed from Expi293 with His tag at the C-terminal. It contains Cys22-Arg221. |
Molecular Weight | The protein has a predicted MW of 23.1 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 45-70 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result. |
Endotoxin | Less than 1 EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Purity | >95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE. >95% as determined by HPLC. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 5% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization. |
Reconstitution | Centrifuge tubes before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. |
Storage | -20 to -80℃ for 12 months as supplied from the date of receipt. -20 to -80℃ for 3-6 months in an unopened state after reconstitution. 2-8℃ for 2-7 days after reconstitution. |
Notes | Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles. |
