Human CD86/B7-2 protein, His tag (Animal-Free) | PRP2023

Product Overwiew:

Recombinant Human CD86/B7-2 protein expressed in HEK293 Cells.

Background:

Cluster of Differentiation 86 (CD86) is also known as B-lymphocyte activation antigen B7-2, is a type I membrane protein that is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily, and is constitutively expressed on interdigitating dendritic cells, Langerhans cells, peripheral blood dendritic cells, memory B cells, and germinal center B cells. B7-2 exists predominantly as a monomer on cell surfaces and interacts with two co-stimulatory receptors CD28 and cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) expressed on T cells, and thus induces the signal pathways which regulate T cell activation and tolerance, cytokine production, and the generation of CTL. It is indicated that contacts between B and T helper cells mediated by CD86 encourage signals for the proliferation and IgG secretion of normal B cells and B cell lymphomas. Recent study has revealed that CD86 also promotes the generation of a mature APC repertoire and promotes APC function and survival. CD86 has an important role in chronic hemodialysis, allergic pulmonary inflammation, arthritis, and antiviral responses, and thus is regarded as a promising candidate for immune therapy.

Features & Benefits:

Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per µg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.

Usage Notes:

Always centrifuge tubes before opening. It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized Human CD86/B7-2 protein using the buffer we provided not less than 100 µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.

N/A

Storage instructions:

Lyophilized Human CD86 protein product should be stored desiccated below -20°C. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -20°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
