Recombinant Human MBP-C/MBL-2 Protein is produced by HEK293 expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Glu21-Ile248) of human MBL2/MBL/COLEC1 (Accession #NP_000233.1) fused with a 6×His tag at the C-terminus. |
Tissue Specificity | Plasma protein produced mainly in the liver. |
Function | Calcium-dependent lectin involved in innate immune defense. Binds mannose, fucose and N-acetylglucosamine on different microorganisms and activates the lectin complement pathway. Binds to late apoptotic cells, as well as to apoptotic blebs and to necrotic cells, but not to early apoptotic cells, facilitating their uptake by macrophages. May bind DNA. Upon SARS coronavirus-2/SARS-CoV-2 infection, activates the complement lectin pathway which leads to the inhibition SARS-CoV-2 infection and a reduction of the induced inflammatory response. |
