| Cat. No. : |
CD33-459H |
| Description : |
Siglecs (or sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin superfamily lectins) are sialic acid-binding Ig-like lectins characterized by a homologous N-terminal V-set Ig-like domain and varying numbers of C2-set Ig-like domains. In humans 11 Siglecs have been described. Siglec-3 (CD33) is the smallest Siglec, with only 2 of these C2-set Ig domains. Siglec-3 is a 67 kDa glycoprotein found predominantly on myeloid cells, including early myeloid precursors in the bone marrow and certain subsets of mature circulating myeloid cells. Siglec-3 has also been reported on dendritic cells, cord blood-derived natural killer (NK) cells, in vitro expanded T cells, and some biphenotypic leukemias. Siglec-3 was initially described as a marker for normal and leukemic myeloid progenitor cells, but has received renewed interest due to its demonstrated lectin activity for alpha 2-6 and alpha 2-3 sialylated N-linked oligosaccharides expressed on red blood cells (RBCs) and certain myeloid cells. |

| Molecular Mass : |
Siglec-3-Fc Chimera migrates as a broad band between 60 and 75 kDa on SDS-PAGE due to post-translation modifications, in particular glycosylation. This compares with the unmodified Siglec-3 - Fc Chimera that has a predicted molecular mass of 54 kDa. |
| PI : |
Siglec-3 -Fc Chimera separates into a number of glycooforms on 2D PAGE due to post-translational modifications, in particular glycosylation. The pI range is between 6.5 and 10. This compares with the unmodified Siglec-3 - Fc Chimera that has a predicted pI of 8.3. |
| %Carbohydrate : |
Siglec-3 - Fc Chimera consists of 10-30% carbohydrate by weight. |
| Glycosylation : |
Siglec-3 - Fc Chimera has N-linked and may have O-linked oligosaccharides. |
| Purity : |
>95%, as determined by SDS-PAGE and visualized by Coomassie Brilliant Blue. |
| Formulation : |
When reconstituted in 0.5 ml sterile phosphate-buffered saline, the solution will contain 1% human serum albumin (HSA) and 10% trehalose. |
| Reconstitution : |
It is recommended that 0.5 ml of sterile phosphate-buffered saline be added to the vial. |
| Storage : |
Lyophilized products should be stored at 2 to 8°C. Following reconstitution short-term storage at 4°C is recommended, with longer-term storage in aliquots at -18 to -20°C. |
