IL-7 R alpha / CD127 Recombinant Protein

Interleukin-7 receptor subunit alpha (IL7Ra) is also known as CD antigen CD127, which belongs to the type I cytokine receptor family and type 4 subfamily. IL7Ra /CD127 contains 1 fibronectin type-III domain. IL7Ra /CD127 is expressed on various cell types, including naive and memory T cells and many others. IL7Ra /CD127 is receptor for interleukin-7 and also acts as a receptor for thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) . The IL7 receptor is a heterodimer of IL7R and IL2RG. The TSLP receptor is a heterodimer of CRLF2 and IL7R.

Lyophilized Protein should be stored at -20˚ C or lower for long term storage. Upon reconstitution, working aliquots should be stored at -20˚ C or -70˚ C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

This protein carries a mouse IgG2a Fc tag at the C-terminus. The protein has a calculated MW of 52.0 kDa. The protein migrates as 65-115 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
