Recombinant Human CD33 Protein (Met1-His259), C-His tagged

• Cat.No.: CD33-5341H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human CD33 (Met1-His259) fused with the C-terminal His tag was expressed in Mammalian cells.

Specification

• Description: Myeloid cell surface antigen CD33 is also known as SIGLEC3, Siglecs (sialic acid binding Ig­like lectins) and GP67, is a single-pass type I membrane protein which belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily and SIGLEC (sialic acid binding Ig-like lectin) family. Human CD33 / Siglec-3 cDNA encodes a 364 amino acid (aa) polypeptide with a hydrophobic signal peptide, an N-­terminal Ig-­like V­-type domain, one Ig­-like C2-­type domains, a transmembrane region and a cytoplasmic tail. CD33 / Siglec-3 usually considered myeloid-specific, but it can also be found on some lymphoid cells. In the immune response, CD33 / Siglec-3 may act as an inhibitory receptor upon ligand induced tyrosine phosphorylation by recruiting cytoplasmic phosphatase (s) via their SH2 domain (s) that block signal transduction through dephosphorylation of signaling molecules. CD33 / Siglec-3 induces apoptosis in acute myeloid leukemia.

Q&As

What are the implications of CD33 polymorphisms in therapeutic targeting?

Certain polymorphisms in the CD33 gene can influence its expression on the cell surface, which might affect the efficacy of CD33-targeted therapies.

What is the primary biological function of CD33 in hematopoietic cells?

CD33 is a transmembrane receptor primarily expressed on cells of myeloid lineage and is involved in modulating cellular functions, including the regulation of cellular proliferation and differentiation.

How does CD33 expression vary among different leukocyte populations?

CD33 is predominantly expressed on myeloid cells, especially on immature myeloid cells. Its expression decreases as these cells differentiate and is typically low or absent on lymphoid cells.

How has CD33 been utilized as a therapeutic target in hematological malignancies?

CD33 has been targeted for therapeutic antibodies in AML. An example is gemtuzumab ozogamicin, which targets CD33 and delivers a cytotoxic agent specifically to leukemia cells expressing CD33.

How does CD33 signaling influence myeloid cell differentiation?

While the exact signaling pathways of CD33 are still under investigation, it is believed that CD33 signaling can influence the differentiation and function of myeloid cells, potentially playing a role in immune regulation.

What role does CD33 play in acute myeloid leukemia (AML)?

CD33 is commonly expressed on the surface of AML blasts, making it a potential target for therapeutic interventions in AML.

Are there known ligands that bind specifically to CD33?

The specific ligands for CD33 are not fully characterized, but it is believed to play a role in cell-cell interactions within the immune system.
