Recombinant Biotinylated Human 2B4 / CD244 / SLAMF4 Protein, Avitag™,His Tag (recommended for biopanning), 25 µg

Background
Natural killer cell receptor 2B4 is also known as NK cell type I receptor protein 2B4 (NKR2B4 or h2B4), SLAM family member 4 (SLAMF4), Signaling lymphocytic activation molecule 4, CD antigen CD244. NKR2B4 / CD244 contains two Ig-like (immunoglobulin-like) domains. CD244 is expressed in spleen, PBL, followed by lung, liver, testis and small intestine. CD244 interacts with CD48. Following phosphorylation, CD244 is able to recruit PTPN11/SHP-2 and SH2D1A/SAP. SLAMF4 modulate other receptor-ligand interactions to enhance leukocyte activation. CD244/2B4 is the only heterophilic receptor of SLAM family.

Source
Recombinant Biotinylated Human 2B4, Avitag,His Tag (recommended for biopanning) (2B4-H82E9) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Cys 22 - Arg 221 (Accession # Q9BZW8-2).
Predicted N-terminus: Cys 22

Molecular Characterization
This protein carries an Avi tag (Avitag™) at the C-terminus, followed by a polyhistidine tag.
The protein has a calculated MW of 25.4 kDa. The protein migrates as 40-65 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

Biotinylation
Biotinylation of this product is performed using Avitag™ technology. Briefly, the single lysine residue in the Avitag is enzymatically labeled with biotin.

Biotin:Protein Ratio
Passed as determined by the HABA assay / binding ELISA.

Endotoxin
Less than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.

Purity
>90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4. Normally trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Reconstitution
Please see Certificate of Analysis for specific instructions.
For best performance, we strongly recommend you to follow the reconstitution protocol provided in the CoA.

Storage
For long term storage, the product should be stored at lyophilized state at -20°C or lower.
Please avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
This product is stable after storage at:
-20°C to -70°C for 12 months in lyophilized state;
-70^°C for 3 months under sterile conditions after reconstitution.
