Recombinant Human Killer Cell Lectin-Like Receptor Subfamily B, Member 1

Source : E.coli. KLRB1 Human Recombinant produced in E. coli is a single polypeptide chain containing 183 amino acids (67-225) and having a molecular mass of 21.0 kDa.KLRB1 is fused to a 24 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. KLRB1 has an inhibitory role on natural killer (NK) cells cytotoxicity which are lymphocytes who facilitate cytotoxicity and secrete cytokines subsequent to immune stimulation. Some genes of the C-type lectin superfamily, like the rodent NKRP1 family of glycoproteins, are expressed by NK cells and take part in NK cell function regulation. KLRB1 holds an extracellular domain with a few characteristic motifs of C-type lectins, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic domain. Due to its external C terminus KLRB1 is considered to be a type II membrane protein.
