Name : Human SIRP alpha/CD172a Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human SIRP alpha/CD172a Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the C-Terminus. It contains Glu31-Arg370.[Accession | P78324-1]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 38.1 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 50-65 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Endotoxin Level :
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Purity :
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE> 95% as determined by HPLC

Formulation :
Lyophilized from 0.22μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.

Reconstitution :
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water.

Storage and Stability :
-20 to -80°C for 12 months as supplied from date of receipt. -80°C for 3-6 months after reconstitution. 2-8°C for 2-7 days after reconstitution. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Concentration :
Tris-Bis PAGE Human SIRP alpha on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Human SIRP alpha is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC. ELISA Data Immobilized Human SIRP alpha, His Tag at 0.5μg/ml (100μl/Well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Human CD47, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 99.1ng/ml determined by ELISA (QC Test). Blocking Data Serial dilutions of Anti-SIRP alpha Antibody were added into Human SIRP alpha, His Tag: Biotinylated Human CD47, His Tag binding reactions.The half maximal inhibitory concentration (IC50) is 73.46ng/ml. SPR Data Human SIRP alpha, His Tag captured on Protein A Chip via Anti-His Antibody can bind Human CD47, hFc Tag with an affinity constant of 20.6nM as determined in SPR assay (Biacore T200). SPR Data Anti-SIRP alpha Antibody captured on CM5 Chip via Protein A can bind Human Sirpa, His Tag with an affinity constant of 2.81 nM as determined in SPR assay (Biacore T200).

Background :
Signal regulatory protein α (SIRPα) is a regulatory membrane glycoprotein from SIRP family expressed mainly by myeloid cells and also by stem cells or neurons.SIRPα acts as inhibitory receptor and interacts with a broadly expressed transmembrane protein CD47 also called the “don´t eat me” signal.Cancer cells highly expressed CD47 that activate SIRP α and inhibit macrophage-mediated destruction.

Synonyms :
CD172a; BIT; MFR; MYD1; MYD-1; P84; PTPNS1; SHPS1; SHPS-1; SIRP alpha; SIRPA;
