Nectin-2 Protein, Human, Recombinant (ECD, His Tag)

Cluster of Differentiation 112 (CD112), also known as poliovirus receptor related protein 2 (PVRL2 or PRR2), is a single-pass type I transmembrane glycoprotein belonging to the Immunoglobulin superfamily. CD112 protein also serves as an entry for certain mutant strains of herpes simplex virus and pseudorabies virus, and thus is involved in cell to cell spreading of these viruses. CD112 protein has been identified as the ligand for DNAM-1 (CD226), and the interaction of CD226/CD112 protein can induce NK cell- and CD8T cell-mediated cytotoxicity and cytokine secretion. CD112 has been regarded as a critical component in allergic reactions, and accordingly may function as a novel target for anti-allergic therapy.

1. Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized recombinant human CD112 at 20 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind biotinylated DNAM1 with a linear range of 0.078-2.5 μg/ml. 2. Using the Octet RED System, the affinity constant (Kd) of Anti-CD112 Antibody (Cat. 10005-MM01) bound to Nectin-2 Protein, Human, Recombinant (His Tag) (Cat. PH50102M2) was 34.4 nM.

Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA.

The recombinant mature human CD112 consists 340 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 36.2 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the recombinant protein migrates as an approximately 48 kDa protein in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.

In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature. Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise. Stable for 1 year at -20°C or below from date of shipment. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and opening the cap. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
