CD200RLa Protein, Cynomolgus, Recombinant (hFc Tag)

Cell surface glycoprotein CD2 receptor 2, also known as Cell surface glycoprotein CD2 receptor 1-like, Cell surface glycoprotein OX2 receptor 2, CD2 receptor-like 2, CD2Rla, CD2R1L and CD2R2, is a single-pass type I membrane protein which belongs to theCD2R family. CD2R1L / CD2R2. It contains oneIg-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain and oneIg-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain. CD2 is a transmembrane protein delivering immunoregulatory signals after engagement of CD2R. A family of CD2Rs exist (CD2R1, CD2R2, CD2R3, CD2R4) with different tissue expression and functional activity. In the presence of anti-CD2R2 / CD2R3 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs), bone-marrow cells cultured in the presence of (interleukin [IL]-4+granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor) differentiate into dendritic cells (DCs), which induce CD4+CD25+ Treg. Interaction between the relatively ubiquitously expressed molecule CD2 and one of its receptors, CD2R1, resulted in direct suppression of alloreactivity, engagement of alternate receptors led instead to altered differentiation of dendritic cells (DCs) from marrow precursors, which could in turn foster development of Foxp3 (+) regulatory T cells. Unlike anti-CD2R1, anti-CD2R2 both promotes development of DCs with capacity to induce Treg and directly augments thymocyte production of Treg.

A DNA sequence encoding the Cynomolgus (Macaca fascicularis) CD200RLa extracellular domain (Met 1-Leu 240) was as fused with the Fc region of human IgG1 at the C-terminus.

At Leading Biology, the biological activity of a recombinant protein is routinely measured using a bioassay, e.g. chemotaxis or cell proliferation assay, enzyme assay, or a functional ELISA. When a recombinant protein is an enzyme, specific activity is derived from an enzymatic assay. Each enzyme is tested for potency by cleavage of a substrate. We are in the process of updating the biological activity data. If you have any questions regarding this update, please feel free to contact our technical support team.

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 cynomolgus CD200RLa/Fc is a disulfide-linked homodimer. The reduced monomer consists of 460 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 51.3 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the CD200RLa/Fc monomer is approximately 70-85 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions due to glycosylation.

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.
