Active Recombinant Human CD59, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: CD59-1600H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human CD59 (Leu26-Asn102) fused with a C­terminal 10­His tag, was expressed in Mouse NSO Cells.

Specification

• Cat. No.: CD59-1600H
• Description: This gene encodes a cell surface glycoprotein that regulates complement-mediated cell lysis, and it is involved in lymphocyte signal transduction. This protein is a potent inhibitor of the complement membrane attack complex, whereby it binds complement C8 and/or C9 during the assembly of this complex, thereby inhibiting the incorporation of multiple copies of C9 into the complex, which is necessary for osmolytic pore formation. This protein also plays a role in signal transduction pathways in the activation of T cells. Mutations in this gene cause CD59 deficiency, a disease resulting in hemolytic anemia and thrombosis, and which causes cerebral infarction. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants, which encode the same protein, have been identified for this gene.
• Source: Mammalian cells
• Molecular Mass: 10.3 kDa
• Predicted N terminal: Leu26
• Formulation: Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS.
• Purity: >95%, by SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions and visualized by silver stain.
• Activity: Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When recombinant human C9 is coated at 5 µg/mL (100 µL/well), the concentration of Recombinant Human CD59 that produces 50% optimal binding response is typically 0.6‑3 µg/mL.
• EndotoxinLevel: < 0.01 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
• Reconstitution: Reconstitute at 100 µg/mL in PBS.
• Storage: 12 months from date of receipt, ­20 to ­70 °C as supplied. Avoid repeated freeze­thaw cycles.
• OfficialSymbol: CD59
