Product Overview
Recombinant human CD44v5 protein (Gln21-Thr222, NVDRNGTTAYEGNWNPEAHPPLIHHEHHEEEETPHST, Arg223-Trp269) with a 6×His tag at C-terminus was expressed in Chinese Hamster Ovary cell line.
Description
The protein encoded by this gene is a cell-surface glycoprotein involved in cell-cell interactions, cell adhesion and migration. It is a receptor for hyaluronic acid (HA) and can also interact with other ligands, such as osteopontin, collagens, and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). This protein participates in a wide variety of cellular functions including lymphocyte activation, recirculation and homing, hematopoiesis, and tumor metastasis. Transcripts for this gene undergo complex alternative splicing that results in many functionally distinct isoforms, however, the full length nature of some of these variants has not been determined. Alternative splicing is the basis for the structural and functional diversity of this protein, and may be related to tumor metastasis.
Bio-activity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When Recombinant Human CD44v5 His-tag Protein is immobilized at 2.00 μg/mL (100 μL/well), Recombinant Human LSECtin/CLEC4G binds with an ED50 of 5.00-30.0 ng/mL.
