Introduction
CD4, a single chain transmembrane glycoprotein, is found on a T cell subset (helper/inducer) representing 45% of peripheral blood lymphocytes. It is also present on 80% of thymocytes and at a lower level on monocytes. It is involved in recognition of antigen presented along with MHC class II by APCs. It serves as receptor for HIV. Antibody to CD4 recognizes T-helper cells required for recognition of class II antigens. It reacts with ~60% of peripheral blood E rosette-positive (E+) cells while showing negligible reactivity with E- cells, monocytes, granulocytes, EBV-transformed B cell lines, and mouse splenocytes.
Description
CD-4 Human Recombinant is fused with a 4kDa His Tag and encoding amino acids 125-202, having a total molecular weight of 19 kDa.
Source
Escherichia Coli.
Physical Appearance
Sterile lyophilized powder.
Formulation
Each mg contains 1X PBS.
Solubility
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized CD-4 (125-202) in sterile 18MΩ-cm H2O not less than 100µg/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions.
Stability
Store vial at -20oC to -80oC. When stored at the recommended temperature, this protein is stable for 12 months.
Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
Please avoid freeze-thaw cycles.
Purity
Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
