SELPLG Human

Source:HEK293 Cells.Physical Appearance:Sterile filtered colorless solution.Biological ActivitynullSELPLG glycoprotein functions as a high affinity counter-receptor for the cell adhesion selectin molecules (P, E and L) located in stimulated T lymphocytes and myeloid cells. SELPLG binds leukocytes to activated platelets or endothelia expressing selectins, a vital role in leukocyte trafficking throughout inflammation. In order to have a high-affinity binding activity SELPLG needs two post-translational modifications, tyrosine sulfation and the addition of the sialyl Lewis x tetrasaccharide (sLex) to its O-linked glycans. Polymorphisms and abnormal expression of SELPLG are linked to defects in the innate and adaptive immune response. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants.SELPLG Human Recombinant produced in HEK293 Cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 496 amino acids (42-295 a.a) and having a molecular mass of 53.4kDa.SELPLG is fused to a 239 amino acid hIgG-His-Tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
