Rat LILRA5 Protein (His Tag)

LILRA5

Catalog Number P80334-R08H
Organism Species Rat
Host Human Cells
Synonyms LILRA5
Molecular Weight The recombinant rat LILRA5 comprises 243 amino acids and predicts a molecular mass of 27.2 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of the recombinant protein is approximately 37 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions due to glycosylation.
predicted N Gln 17
SDS-PAGE
Purity > 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Protein Construction A DNA sequence encoding the rat LILRA5 (D4A6Y0) (Met1-Asn248) was expressed, fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.

Formulation Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4
1. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Specific concentrations are included in the hardcopy of COA.
Background LILRA5 is a member of the leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor (LIR) family. LILR are a family of receptors possessing extracellular immunoglobulin domains. They are also known as CD85, ILTs and LIR, and can exert immunomodulatory effects on a wide range of immune cells. ILT-11 contains 2 Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains. It can be detected n tissues of the hematopoietic system, including bone marrow, spleen, lymph node and peripheral leukocytes. Crosslink of ILT-11 on the surface of monocytes has been shown to induce calcium flux and secretion of several proinflammatory cytokines, which suggests the roles of this protein in triggering innate immune responses.
