Active Recombinant Human CTLA4, MIgG2a Fc-tagged

• Cat.No.: CTLA4-3256H
• Product Overview: The extracellular domain of human CD152[CTLA-4](NP_005205.2) (Ala37-Ser160) is fused to the N-terminus of the Fc region of mouse IgG2a.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: NS1
• Tag: Fc
• Protein Length: 37-160 a.a.
• Description: This gene is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily and encodes a protein which transmits an inhibitory signal to T cells. The protein contains a V domain, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tail. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. The membrane-bound isoform functions as a homodimer interconnected by a disulfide bond, while the soluble isoform functions as a monomer. Mutations in this gene have been associated with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, Graves disease, Hashimoto thyroiditis, celiac disease, systemic lupus erythematosus, thyroid-associated orbitopathy, and other autoimmune diseases.
• Form: Lyophilized from 0.2μm-filtered solution in PBS.
• Bio-activity: Measured by its ability to inhibit IL-2 secretion by stimulated Jurkat human acute T cell leukemia cells.
• Molecular Mass: 39 KDa (monomer)
• AA Sequence: Ala37-Ser160
• Endotoxin: <0.06 eu/μg="" as="" determined="" by="" lal="" test.="">
• Purity: >98%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
• Stability: Stable for at least 1 year after receipt when stored at -20°C. Working aliquots are stable for up to 3 months when stored at -20°C.
• Reconstitution: Reconstitute at 100μg/ml in sterile PBS.
• Warning: Avoid freeze/thaw cycles.
