The Recombinant Human CTLA-4/CD152 Protein is a biologically active recombinant protein that plays a significant role in various cellular processes and signaling pathways in human biology. This protein is widely employed in immunological research, cell biology studies, protein-protein interaction analyses, and therapeutic development, providing researchers with a reliable tool for investigating CTLA-4/CD152 function and its implications in health and disease.
This product (SKU: RPCB0591) is produced using E. coli and features a C-hFc tag for convenient detection and purification. The protein exhibits a calculated molecular weight of 40.1 kDa with an observed molecular weight of 50-55 kDa under denaturing conditions, achieving ≥ 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE;≥ 95 % as determined by HPLC., ensuring exceptional quality and consistency for research applications.
High quality, high purity and low endotoxin recombinant Recombinant Human CTLA-4/CD152 Protein (RPCB0591), tested reactivity in HEK293 cells and has been validated in SDS-PAGE.100% guaranteed.
Endotoxin:
< 1 EU/μg of the protein by LAL method.
Purity:
≥ 95 % as determined by SDS-PAGE;≥ 95 % as determined by HPLC.
Formulation:
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization.
Reconstitution:
Centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute to a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/mL in sterile distilled water. Avoid vortex or vigorously pipetting the protein. For long term storage, it is recommended to add a carrier protein or stablizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose), and aliquot the reconstituted protein solution to minimize free-thaw cycles.
Storage:
Store at -20℃.Store the lyophilized protein at -20℃ to -80 ℃ up to 1 year from the date of receipt. After reconstitution, the protein solution is stable at -20℃ for 3 months, at 2-8℃ for up to 1 week.
CTLA-4 (cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4), also known as CD152, is a protein receptor that, functioning as an immune checkpoint, downregulates immune responses.CTLA4 is constitutively expressed in regulatory T cells but only upregulated in conventional T cells after activation – a phenomenon which is particularly notable in cancers. It acts as an "off" switch when bound to CD80 or CD86 on the surface of antigen-presenting cells.
Recombinant Human CTLA-4/CD152 Protein was determined by Tris-Bis PAGE under reducing conditions.
The purity of Human CTLA-4 is greater than 95% as determined by SEC-HPLC.
Human B7-1, His Tag captured on CM5 Chip via Anti-His Antibody can bind Human CTLA-4, hFc Tag with an affinity constant of 1.1nM as determined in SPR assay (Biacore T200).
