Name : Human MBL2/Mannan Binding Lectin Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human MBL2/Mannan Binding Lectin Protein is expressed from HEK293 with His tag at the C-Terminus. It contains Glu21-Ile248.[Accession | P11226]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 25.11 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 30-40 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 MBL2 on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%.

Background :
Mannan-binding lectin (MBL) is a vital element in the host innate immune system, which is primarily produced by the liver and secreted into the circulation.It is present in serum and may bind to a plethora of microbial pathogens and mediate opsonization of these by complement-dependent and/or independent mechanisms.

Synonyms :
MBP-C; MBPC; MBL2; Mannan Binding Lectin; Collectin-1; MBP1; COLEC1; MBL;HSMBPC; MBL2D; MBPD
