CD155/PVR Protein, Human, Recombinant (ECD, His Tag)

CD155, commonly known as PVR (poliovirus receptor) and Necl-5 (nectin-like molecule-5), is a type I transmembrane single-span glycoprotein, and belongs to the nectins and nectin-like (Necl) subfamily. CD155 was originally identified based on its ability to mediate the cell attachment and entry of poliovirus (PV), an etiologic agent of the central nervous system disease poliomyelitis. The normal cellular function is in the establishment of intercellular adherens junctions between epithelial cells. CD155 may assist in an efficient humoral immune response generated within the intestinal immune system. It has been demonstrated that CD155 can be recognized and bond by DNAM-1 and CD96 which promote the adhesion, migration and NK-cell killing, and thus efficiently prime cell-mediated tumor-specific immunity.

A DNA sequence encoding the human CD155 isoform Alpha (P15151-1) extracellular domain (Met1-Asn343) was fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.

Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized human CD155 (Cat: PH50647M2) at 2 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind human DNAM1 (Cat: 10565-H03H), the ECof human DNAM1/CD226 is 50-300 ng/mL.

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 human CD155 consists of 334 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 36.5 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the rhCD155/Fc monomer migrates as approximately 60-65 kDa band 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.
