Name : Human B7-H2/ICOSLG Protein

Product Source :
Recombinant Human B7-H2/ICOSLG Protein is expressed from HEK293 with hFc tag at the C-Terminus. It contains Asp19-Ser258.[Accession | O75144-1]

Molecular Weight :
The protein has a predicted MW of 53.4 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 75-100 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 B7-H2 on Tris-Bis PAGE under reduced condition. The purity is greater than 95%. SEC-HPLC The purity of Human B7-H2 is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC. ELISA Data Immobilized Human ICOS, His Tag at 0.5μg/ml (100μl/Well) on the plate. Dose response curve for Human B7-H2, hFc Tag with the EC50 of 25.3ng/ml determined by ELISA (QC Test). SPR Data Human B7-H2 captured on Protein A chip, can bind Human ICOS (C136S,C137S) , His Tag with an affinity constant of 40.2nM as determined in a SPR assay (Biacore T200).

Background :
B7-H2, also known as B7-related protein (B7RP1), ICOS Ligand, and CD275, is an approximately 60 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein in the B7 family of immune regulatory molecules. B7-H2 is a ligand for the T-cell-specific cell surface receptor ICOS. Acts as a costimulatory signal for T-cell proliferation and cytokine secretion; induces also B-cell proliferation and differentiation into plasma cells.

Synonyms :
