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 |
ULBP-4 hFc Chimera, Human captured on CM5 Chip via Protein A can bind Human NKG2D, His Tag in SPR assay (Biacore T200). Test result was comparable to standard batch. |
Expression System |
HEK293 |
Theoretical Molecular Weight |
49.12 kDa |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 60-70 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 |
UL16-binding proteins (ULBPs) are markers of cellular stress which are upregulated on the surface of virus-infected and tumor cells. ULBPs are expressed by a variety of leukemias, carcinomas, melanomas, and tumor cell lines.ULBP4 is associated with higher levels of CD8+/NKG2D+ lymphocytes infiltrating the carcinoma and is a prognosticator of improved survival. |
