Product Overview
Human PDCD1 (NP_005009.2, 25 a.a.-168 a.a.) partial recombinant protein with Fc, 6xHis tag at C-terminal expressed in HEK293 cells.
Description
This gene encodes a cell surface membrane protein of the immunoglobulin superfamily. This protein is expressed in pro-B-cells and is thought to play a role in their differentiation. In mice, expression of this gene is induced in the thymus when anti-CD3 antibodies are injected and large numbers of thymocytes undergo apoptosis. Mice deficient for this gene bred on a BALB/c background developed dilated cardiomyopathy and died from congestive heart failure. These studies suggest that this gene product may also be important in T cell function and contribute to the prevention of autoimmune diseases.
Storage
Store the lyophilized protein at -20 to -80 centigrade for long term. After reconstitution with a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/mL in sterile distilled water, the protein solution is stable at -20 centigrade for 3 months, at 2-8 centigrade for up to 1 week. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
