Product Overview
Tag | His |
Host Species | Human |
Accession | O43155 |
Synonym | KIAA0405, UNQ232/PRO265 |
Background | Fibronectin Leucine-Rich Transmembrane (FLRT) proteins are glycosylated membrane proteins expressed at the cell surface which localise in a homophilic manner to cell-cell contacts expressing the focal adhesion marker vinculin. FLRT1, FLRT2, and FLRT3, the three genes encode putative type I transmembrane proteins, each containing 1 leucine-rich repeats (LRR), a type III fibronectin (FN) domain, followed by the transmembrane region, and a short cytoplasmic tail. FLRT family members may function in cell adhesion and/or receptor signalling. Each member of the FLRT family has a distinct, highly regulated expression pattern, as was seen for the NLRR family. FLRT2 is expressed in a subset of the sclerotome, adjacent to the region that forms the syndetome, suggesting that interaction with FGF signalling may be a general property of FLRT proteins. All FLRTs can interact with FGFR1 and FLRTs can be induced by the activation of FGF signalling by FGF-2. FLRT proteins have a dual role, promoting FGF signalling and modulating homotypic cell adhesion. FLRT2 played critical roles in craniofacial development, and it was also present in the vomero-nasal organ, mandibular primodia, and the posterior aspects of the unfused and fused secondary palatal shelves. |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the human FLRT2 (O43155) extracellular domain (Met 1-Ser 539) was expressed, with a C-terminal His tag. |
Source | HEK293 |
Predicted N Terminal | Cys 36 |
AA Sequence | Met 1-Ser 539 |
Molecular Weight | The secreted recombinant human FLRT2 comprises 515 a.a. and has a calculated molecular mass of 57.7 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the recombinant protein is approximately 75 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions due to glycosylation. |
Purity | >98% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method |
Bioactivity | Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to support the adhesion of Neuro-2A mouse neuroblastoma cells.When cells are added to coated plates(5ug/mL, 100uL/well), approximately 50%-70% will adhere after 1 hour at 37°C. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. |
Stability | The recombinant proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70°C. |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Store the protein under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
