MBL1 Protein, Mouse, Recombina

蛋白长度：A DNA sequence encoding the mature form of mouse MBL (NP_034905.1) (Ser 18-Ala 239) was expressed with a N-terminal polyhistidine tag.

性质：

表达系统：HEK293 Cells

种属：Mouse

氨基酸序：Ser18-Ala239

标签类型：N-His

分子量：The secreted recombinant mouse MBL consists of 238 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 25.8 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the recombinant protein migrates as an approximately 32 kDa protein in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.

活性：At Leading Biology, the biological activity of a recombinant protein is routinely measured using a bioassay, e.g. chemotaxis or cell proliferation assay, enzyme assay, or a functional ELISA. When a recombinant protein is an enzyme, specific activity is derived from an enzymatic assay. Each enzyme is tested for potency by cleavage of a substrate. We are in the process of updating the biological activity data. If you have any questions regarding this update, please feel free to contact our technical support team.

内毒素：< 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.

基因名称：lectin, mannose-binding, 1

通用名：MBL1

总结：Mannose-binding lectin (MBL), also named mannose or mannan-binding protein (MBP), is a C-type lectin that participates in the innate immune system as an activator of the complement system and as opsonin after binding to certain carbohydrate structures on microorganisms and pathogens. Its function appears to be pattern recognition in the first line of defense in the pre-immune host. MBL recognizes carbohydrate patterns found on the surface of a large number of pathogenic micro-organisms including bacteria, viruses, protozoa, and fungi. The binding of MBL to a micro-organism results in activation of the lectin pathway of the complement system. Two forms of MBL, MBL-A, and MBL-C were characterized in rodents, rabbits, bovine, and rhesus monkeys, whereas only one form was identified in humans, chimpanzees, and chickens. The two forms are encoded by two distinct genes named MBL1 and MBL2, which have been identified in many species including the pig. The MBL1 and MBL2 genes encode mannan-binding lectins (MBL) A and C, respectively, that are collagenous lectins (collectins) produced mainly by the liver. The MBL1 gene encodes MBL-A, which has bacteria-binding properties in pigs and rodents but is mutated to a pseudogene in humans and chimpanzees. Deficiency of MBL is probably the most common human immunodeficiency and is associated with an increased risk of mucosally acquired infections including meningococcal disease. MBL could modify disease susceptibility by modulating macrophage interactions with mucosal organisms at the site of initial acquisition.

形式：Lyophilized

纯度：> 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE.

储存条件：In general, recombinant proteins are provided as lyophilized powder which are shipped at ambient temperature. Bulk packages of recombinant proteins are provided as frozen liquid. They are shipped out with blue ice unless customers require otherwise. Stable for 1 year at -20°C or below from date of shipment. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and opening the cap. For long-term storage, aliquot and store at -20°C or below. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

储存溶液：Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Please contact us for any concerns or special requirements. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween 80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the hard copy of CoA.
