Product Details

Molecular Aliases
2B4; CD244 antigen; CD244; h2B4; NAIL; NKR2B4; Nmrk; SLAMF4
Protein Length
Cys22-Arg221
Expression System
HEK293
Theoretical Molecular Weight
The protein has a predicted MW of 24.9 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 48-70 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 0.22μm 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

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.

Note: HPLC results always come from liquid protein, due to absorption peak interference of trehalose in lyophilized powder.
