Description
This gene encodes a glycoprotein expressed on the surface of NK cells, platelets, monocytes and a subset of T cells. It is a member of the Ig-superfamily containing 2 Ig-like domains of the V-set. The protein mediates cellular adhesion of platelets and megakaryocytic cells to vascular endothelial cells. The protein also plays a role in megakaryocytic cell maturation. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Bio-activity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When Recombinant Cynomolgus Monkey DNAM-1/CD226 Fc Chimera is immobilized at 0.25 μg/mL (100 μL/well), the concentration of Recombinant Human CD155/PVR Fc Chimera that produces 50% of the optimal binding response is approximately 0.2-1 μg/mL.
Storage
Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
12 months from date of receipt, -20 to -70 centigrade as supplied.
1 month, 2 to 8 centigrade under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
