Product Overview
Description | Recombinant Human Mannose Binding Lectin 2 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Glu21-Ile248 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. |
Accession | P11226 |
Synonym | Mannose-Binding Protein C; MBP-C; Collectin-1; MBP1; Mannan-Binding Protein; Mannose-Binding Lectin; MBL2; COLEC1; MBL |
Gene Background | Mannose-Binding Protein C (MBP-C) belongs to the Collectin family of innate immune defense proteins. MBL binds to an array of carbohydrate patterns on pathogen surfaces. Collectin family members share common structural features: a cysteine rich amino-terminal domain, a collagen-like region, an α-helical coiled-coil neck domain and a carboxy terminal C-type Lectin or carbohydrate recognition domain (CRD). MBL homotrimerizes to form a structural unit joined by N-terminal disulfide bridges. These homotrimers further associates into oligomeric structures of up to 6 units. Whereas two forms of MBL proteins exist in rodents and other animals. Human MBL-2 is 25 kDa. Human MBL-2 is a secreted glycoprotein that is synthesized as a 248 amino acid (aa) precursor that contains a 20 aa signal sequence, a 21 aa cysteine-rich region, a 58 aa collagen-like segment and a 111 aa C-type lectin domain that binds to neutral bacterial carbohydrates. |
Molecular Mass | 25.1 KDa |
Apmol Mass | 31 KDa, reducing conditions |
Formulation | Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of 20mM PB, 150mM NaCl, 5% Threhalose, pH 7.2. |
Endotoxin | Less than 0.1 ng/µg (1 EU/µg) as determined by LAL test. |
Purity | Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. (QC verified) |
Biological Activity | Not tested |
Reconstitution | Always centrifuge tubes before opening. Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100μg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. |
Storage | Lyophilized protein should be stored at ≤ -20°C, stable for one year after receipt. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 2-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at ≤ -20°C for 3 months. |
Shipping | The product is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature listed below. |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Target Details
Target Function | Calcium-dependent lectin involved in innate immune defense. Binds mannose, fucose and N-acetylglucosamine on different microorganisms and activates the lectin complement pathway. Binds to late apoptotic cells, as well as to apoptotic blebs and to necrotic cells, but not to early apoptotic cells, facilitating their uptake by macrophages. May bind DNA. |
Subcellular Location | Secreted. |
