Description:

Recombinant Human SIGLEC5 Protein with C-terminal 6×His tag

Background:

This gene encodes a member of the sialic acid-binding immunoglobulin-like lectin (Siglec) family. These cell surface lectins are characterized by structural motifs in the immunoglobulin (Ig)-like domains and sialic acid recognition sites in the first Ig V set domain. The encoded protein is a member of the CD33-related subset of Siglecs and inhibits the activation of several cell types including monocytes, macrophages and neutrophils. Binding of group B Streptococcus (GBS) to the encoded protein plays a role in GBS immune evasion. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2012]

Molecular characterization:

SIGLEC5(Glu17-Thr434) 6×His tag

Molecular weight:

The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 47.2 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of SIGLEC5-His is approximately 55-100 kDa due to glycosylation.

Tag:

C-6×His Tag

Expression host:

HEK293

Target:

SIGLEC5

Purity:

The purity of the protein is greater than 85% as determined by SDS-PAGE and Coomassie blue staining.

Formulation / Reconstitution:

Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8% trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization. Please see Certificate of Analysis for specific instructions of reconstitution.

Storage:

Store at -20°C to -80°C for 12 months in lyophilized form. After reconstitution, if not intended for use within a month, aliquot and store at -80°C (Avoid repeated freezing and thawing). Lyophilized proteins are shipped at ambient temperature.
