• 100ug (NPP2379) Please inquiry

Catalog Number	P10585-H07H
Organism Species	Human
Host	Human Cells
Synonyms	CLEC8A,LOX1,LOXIN,OLR1,SCARE1,SLOX1
Molecular Weight	The recombinant human OLR1 consists of 229 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 26.5 kDa. It exists as a disulfide-linked homodimer. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent molecular mass of rhOLR1 is approximately 30-35 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, and 60-70 kDa in non-reduced SDS-PAGE.
predicted N	His
SDS-PAGE
Purity	> 85 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Protein Construction	A DNA sequence encoding the human OLR1 (P78380) extracellular domain (Ser 61-Gln 273) was expressed, with a polyhistidine tag at the N-terminus.
Bio-activity
Research Area	Signaling |Signal Transduction |Cytoskeleton / ECM |Cell Adhesion |Lectin |C-tyep lectin |
Formulation	Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4 1. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose and mannitol are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA.
Background	Oxidized low-density lipoprotein receptor 1 (Ox-LDL receptor 1 or OLR1), also known as lectin-type oxidized LDL receptor 1 (LOX1), is a receptor protein that belongs to the C-type lectin superfamily. LOX1 is a multi-ligand receptor originally identified as the endothelial oxidized LDL receptor. OLR1 / LOX1 was isolated from an aortic endothelial cell, and recently it has been discovered in macrophages and vascular smooth muscle cells in artery vessels. The expression of LOX1 is inducted by inflammatory stimuli and oxidative stimuli. This protein binds, internalizes and degrades oxidized low-density lipoprotein. LOX1 may play an important role in the progression of vulnerable carotid plaque and might regulate vulnerable plaque formation in cooperation with MMPs and TIMP-2. In clinical, LOX1 is thought to be involved in the development of atherosclerotic lesions.
