Mgl2 Protein, Mouse, Recombinant (His)

Catalog No. TMPJ-01217
Synonyms: Macrophage Galactose-type C-lectin 2, Mgl2, CD301b, Macrophage galactose N-acetyl-galactosamine-specific lectin 2

Macrophage galactose N-acetyl-galactosamine-specific lectin 2(Mgl2), also known as CD301b, is a 38 kDa member that belongs to the C-type lectin family. Two MGL proteins are encoded by separate genes in the mouse, but share 91% amino acid (aa) identity in the extracellular domain (ECD). Only one MGL occurs in human and rat and this MGL is structurally more similar to mouse MGL1 than MGL2. However, human MGL and mouse MGL2 both bind specifically to terminal GalNAc residues, in contrast with mouse MGL1 which binds Lewis X. GalNAc recognition is likely to be important in dendritic cell-mediated tolerance to self-gangliosides as well as recognition of tumor antigens and parasite glycoproteins.

Amino Acid Ser72-Pro332
Construction Recombinant Mouse Macrophage Galactose N-acetyl-galactosamine-specific Lectin 2 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Ser72-Pro332 is expressed with a 6His tag at the N-terminus.
Protein Purity Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE. (QC verified)
Molecular Weight 30-40 KDa, reducing conditions
Endotoxin Less than 0.1 ng/µg (1 EU/µg) as determined by LAL test.
Formulation Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
Reconstitution Always centrifuge tubes before opening.Do not mix by vortex or pipetting. It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100μg/ml. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. Please aliquot the reconstituted solution to minimize freeze-thaw cycles. 
Stability & Storage

Lyophilized protein should be stored at ≤ -20°C, stable for one year after receipt. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 2-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at ≤ -20°C for 3 months.

Shipping

The product is shipped at ambient temperature. Upon receipt, store it immediately at the temperature listed below.
