ALCAN-alpha,N2DL2,NKG2DL2,RAET1H,UNQ463 / PRO791

Catalog Number P12143-H02H
Organism Species Human
Host Human Cells
Synonyms ALCAN-alpha,N2DL2,NKG2DL2,RAET1H,UNQ463 / PRO791
Molecular Weight The recombinant human ULBP2/Fc is a disulfide-linked homodimeric protein. The reduced monomer consists of 433 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 48.7 kDa. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent molecular mass of rhULBP2/Fc monomer is approximately 58 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
predicted N Gly 26

Background NKG2D ligand 2, also known as N2DL-2, NKG2DL2, ALCAN-alpha, Retinoic acid early transcript 1H, UL16-binding protein 2, ULBP2 and N2DL2, is cell membrane protein which belongs to the MHC class I family. ULBP2 / N2DL-2 is expressed in various types of cancer cell lines and in the fetus, but not in normal tissues. ULBP2 / N2DL-2 is a ligand for the NKG2D receptor, together with at least ULBP1 and ULBP3. ULBPs activate multiple signaling pathways in primary NK cells, resulting in the production of cytokines and chemokines. Binding of ULBPs ligands to NKG2D induces calcium mobilization and activation of the JAK2, STAT5, ERK and PI3K kinase/Akt signal transduction pathway.
