Product Overview
Tag | Fc |
Host Species | Human |
Accession | O95711 |
Synonym | dJ80N2.1, MD-1, MD1, MMD-1 |
Background | MD-1 and MD-2 are secretory glycoproteins that exist on the cell surface in complexes with transmembrane proteins. MD-1 is anchored by radioprotective 15 (RP15) which is a molecule containing leucine-rich repeats and is expressed on B cells, dentritic cells and macrophages, while MD-2 is associated with TLR4. MD-1 is required for efficient RP15 cell surface expression and function. It is indicated that the RP15/MD1 complex, in conjunction with TLR4, mediates the innate immune response to LPS in B cells, and also plays a role in protecting against apoptosis, B-cell proliferation, etc. Mouse MD-1 cDNA encodes a 162 amino acid precursor protein with a putative 19 aa signal peptide and two potential N-linked glycosylation sites. It shares 4% and 66% amino acid sequence identity with chicken and human MD-1 respectively. MD-1 is mainly expressed in spleen, and also detectable in liver, brain, thymus, and kidney. |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the human LY86 (O95711) (Met1-Ser162) was expressed, fused with the Fc region of human IgG1 at the C-terminus. |
Source | HEK293 |
Predicted N Terminal | Gly 21 |
AA Sequence | Met1-Ser162 |
Molecular Weight | The recombinant human LY86/Fc is a disulfide-linked homodimer. The reduced monomer comprises 383 a.a. and has a predicted molecular mass of 42.7 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the protein is approximately 48 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions |
Purity | >85% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method |
Bioactivity | Please contact us for detailed information |
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. |
Target Details
Target Function | May cooperate with CD180 and TLR4 to mediate the innate immune response to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and cytokine production. Important for efficient CD180 cell surface expression. |
Subcellular Location | Secreted, extracellular space. Note=Associated with CD180 at the cell surface. |
Database References | |
Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in B-cells, monocytes and tonsil. |
