Recombinant Rat Cd48 protein, C-hFc Tag

Product Description

Cat

IMP-359

Official Symbol

Cd48

Product Overview

Recombinant Rat Cd48 protein (NP_620803.1) (Met1-Arg216) was expressed in HEK293, fused with the Fc region of human IgG1 at the C-terminus.

Description

Cluster of Differentiation 48 (CD48), also known as SLAMF2, BCM-1 and BLAST-1, is a GPI-linked protein belonging to the CD2 subfamily of immunoglobulin superfamily molecules. CD2 and 2B4 (CD244) are known ligands for CD48. CD48 protein is expressed on most lineage-committed hematopoietic cells but not on hematopoietic stem cells or multipotent hematopoietic progenitors. CD48 protein performs biological functions in a variety processes including adhesion, pathogen recognition, cellular activation, and cytokine regulation, and emerges as a critical effector molecule in immune responses.

Form

Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.

Molecular Mass

The recombinant rat CD48/Fc is a disulfide-linked homodimer. The reduced monomer comprises 435 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 49.5 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the protein is approximately 38-44 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.

Protein length

Met1-Arg216

Endotoxin

< 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method

Purity

> 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE

Storage

Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20°C to -80°C. Store it under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Reconstitution

It is recommended that sterile water be added to the vial to prepare a stock solution of 0.2 ug/ul. Centrifuge the vial at 4°C before opening to recover the entire contents.
