PE-Labeled Human HLA-E*01:03&B2M&CMV UL40 (VMAPRTVIL) Tetramer Protein

HLA-E belongs to the HLA class I heavy chain paralogues. This class I molecule is a heterodimer consisting of a heavy chain and a light chain (beta-2 microglobulin) . The heavy chain is anchored in the membrane. HLA-E binds a restricted subset of peptides derived from the leader peptides of other class I molecules. The heavy chain is approximately 45 kDa and its gene contains 8 exons. Exon one encodes the leader peptide, exons 2 and 3 encode the alpha1 and alpha2 domains, which both bind the peptide, exon 4 encodes the alpha3 domain, exon 5 encodes the transmembrane region, and exons 6 and 7 encode the cytoplasmic tail.

Background

Specifications

PE-Labeled Human HLA-E*01:03&B2M&CMV UL40 (VMAPRTVIL) Tetramer Protein is assembled by biotinylated monomer (HL0-H82E6) and PE-labeled streptavidin. Biotinylated Human HLA-E*01:03&B2M&CMV UL40 (VMAPRTVIL) Complex Protein is produced by co-expression of HLA and B2M loaded with CMV UL40 peptide. Biotinylated Human HLA-E*01:03&B2M&CMV UL40 (VMAPRTVIL) Complex Protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus, followed by an Avi tag (Avitag™) .
