Purity |
> 95% as determined by BisTris PAGE > 95% as determined by HPLC |
Endotoxin Level |
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Biological Activity |
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized 2B4/CD244/SLAMF4[Biotin], His & Avi, Human at 0.5μg/ml (100μl/well) on the streptavidin precoated plate (5μg/ml) can bind Human CD48, hFc Tag. Test result was comparable to standard batch. |
Expression System |
HEK293 |
Theoretical Molecular Weight |
24.9 kDa |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 48-70 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). |
Reconstitution |
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. |
Storage & Stability |
Upon receiving, the product remains stable up to 6 months at -20 °C or below. Upon reconstitution, the product should be stable for 3 months at -80 °C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
Target 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 a number of reports have linked 2B4 with 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. |
Synonyms |
