Adheres to and induces bacterial uptake by human epithelial cells (Probable) . Upon expression in engineered Y.enterocolitica confers an 11- to 15-fold increase in bacterial adherence and uptake by human epithelial cell lines; part of the uptake is mediated by integrin beta-1 (ITGB1) suggesting it may be a human receptor for NadA. A bacterial cell surface protein; antisera against this protein induce complement-mediated killing of this and other strains.

If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.

The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.
