Name : Human KIR2DL5 Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human KIR2DL5 Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag and Avi tag at the C-Terminus. It contains His22-His240.[Accession | NP_065396]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 26.3 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 45-52 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

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 KIR2DL5 on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%.

Background :
A recently developed anti-KIR2DL5 (CD158f) antibody has demonstrated KIR2DL5 expression on the surface of NK and T lymphocytes, making it the last functional KIR identified in the human genome. KIR2DL5 belongs to an ancestral lineage of KIR with Ig-like domains of the D0-D2 type, of which KIR2DL4, an HLA-G receptor, is the only other human member.

Synonyms :
KIR2DL5A; CD158F; CD158F1; KIR2DL5; KIR2DL5.1; KIR2DL5.3; KIR2DL5A; KIR2DL5B
