Product overview
Recombinant Human HLA-B*15:01&B2M&SARS-CoV-2 epitope (NQKLIANQF) Monomer Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag and Avi tag at the C-terminus. It contains Gly21-Thr301(HLA-B*15:01), Ile21-Met119(B2M) and NQKLIANQF peptide (accession: AAA53258.1(HLA-B*15:01) & P61769(B2M) &NQKLIANQF).
Product Details
- Molecular Aliases
- MHC; SARS-CoV-2 epitope;
- Protein Length
- Gly21-Thr301
- Expression System
- HEK293
- Theoretical Molecular Weight
- The protein has a predicted MW of 50.50 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 52-68 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result.
- Purity
- > 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE > 95% as determined by HPLC
- Endotoxin
- Less than 1 EU per μg by the LAL method.
- Buffer / Formulation
- Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.
- State
- Lyophilized
- Storage Conditions
- -20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -80°C for 3 months after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.
- Reconstitution Advice
- Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please refer to the Certificate of Analysis for detailed instructions.

Background
HLA-B*15:01 is strongly associated with asymptomatic infection with SARS-CoV-2 and is likely to be involved in the mechanism underlying early viral clearance. T cells from pre-pandemic individuals carrying HLA-B*15:01 were reactive to the immunodominant SARS-CoV-2 S-derived peptide NQKLIANQF, and 100% of the reactive cells displayed memory phenotype.
