Product Details

Molecular Aliases
TIGIT; VSIG9; VSTM3; WUCAM
Protein Length
Ala17-Gln136
Expression System
HEK293
Theoretical Molecular Weight
The protein has a predicted MW of 39.47 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 50-60 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result.
Purity
> 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE > 95% as determined by HPLC
Endotoxin
Less than 0.01 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

TIGIT, also called Vstm3, Vsig9, and WUCAM, is a transmembrane protein in the CD28 family of the Ig superfamily proteins.IGIT is expressed at low levels on peripheral memory and regulatory CD4 T-cells and NK cells and is up-regulated following activation of these cells.
