Recombinant Human CD55 Protein, His Tag

Molecular Characterization: CD55 (Asp35-Ser353) 6Ã-His tagMolecular weight: The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 35.8 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of CD55-His is approximately 35-70 kDa due to glycosylation.Description: Recombinant Human CD55 Protein with C-terminal6Ã-His tagThis gene encodes a glycoprotein involved in the regulation of the complement cascade. Binding of the encoded protein to complement proteins accelerates their decay, thereby disrupting the cascade and preventing damage to host cells. Antigens present on this protein constitute the Cromer blood group system (CROM) . Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. The predominant transcript variant encodes a membrane-bound protein, but alternatively spliced transcripts may produce soluble proteins.
