Recombinant Rat CLEC4D/CLECSF8 Protein (Fc Tag)

C-type lectin (CLEC) family is a type of carbohydrate-binding protein domain named lectin. C-type lectins are the most diverse and prevalent lectin family in immunity with its requirement for calcium for binding. Proteins including a C-type lectin domain have diverse range of functions including cell-cell adhesion, immune response to pathogens and apoptosis. There are at least 14 types of C-type lectins: typeIto typeXIV. CLEC4D (CLECSF8) is a typeII membrane glycoprotein belonging to the C-type lectin family, with restricted expression in the monocyte/macrophage lineage. It plays important roles in the function of macrophages.

Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months.
