| Host: | HEK293 |
| Note: | STRICTLY FOR FURTHER RESEARCH USE ONLY (RUO). MUST NOT TO BE USED IN DIAGNOSTIC OR THERAPEUTIC APPLICATIONS. |
| Short Description : | Recombinant-Human Siglec-8-C-His-Avi protein was developed from hek293 and has a target region of C-His-Avi. For use in research applications. |
| Conjugation: | Biotin |
| Formulation: | Lyophilised from 0.2 µm filtered PBS solution pH7.4. |
| Dilution Range: | Upon receipt centrifuge vial to ensure maximal product extraction, recommended: 20sec, 5K RPM |
| Storage Instruction: | The lyophilized protein is stable for at least 1 year from date of receipt at-20°C. |
| Endotoxin: | Endotoxin content was assayed using a LAL gel clot method. Endotoxin level was found to be less than 0.1 ng/µg (1EU/µg). |
| Gene Symbol: | SIGLEC8 |
| Gene ID: | 27181 |
| Uniprot ID: | SIGL8_HUMAN |
| Immunogen Region: | Met17-Ala363 |
| Immunogen: | DNA sequence encoding Human Siglec-8 including a C-His-Avi tag was expressed in HEK293 Cells. The recombinant protein was then biotinylated site specific using the AVItag biotinylation technology. |
| Function | Putative adhesion molecule that mediates sialic-acid dependent binding to blood cells. Preferentially binds to alpha-2,3-linked sialic acid. Also binds to alpha-2,6-linked sialic acid. The sialic acid recognition site may be masked by cis interactions with sialic acids on the same cell surface. Recognizes simultaneously epitopes having a terminal N-acetylneuraminic acid (sialic acid) and an underlying 6-O-sulfated galactose. Preferentially binds to Gal-6-sulfated sialyl-Lewis X glycan epitopes. |
