Description

The RhD Human is created as a recombinant protein with a 4kda N-terminal fusion of His Tag. The RhD His-Tagged Fusion Protein, produced in E. coli, is a 13kDa protein containing 58 amino acid residues of the RhD Human, 108-165 amino acids.

Source

Escherichia Coli.

Formulation

Each mg was lyophilized with 1xPBS, 0.4% SDS and 4mM DTT.

Purity

Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

More Info

  • Synonyms

    SLC42A5, CD240D, DIIIc, RhPI, RhII, Rh4.

  • Physical Appearance

    Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder.

  • Stability

    Store lyophilized RhD at -20°C. Aliquot the product after reconstitution to avoid repeated freezing/thawing cycles. Reconstituted protein can be stored at 4°C for a limited period of time; it does not show any change after two weeks at 4°C.

  • Solubility

    It is recommended to add deionized water to prepare a working stock solution of approximately 0.5mg/ml and let the lyophilized pellet dissolve completely. Product is not sterile!

    Please filter the product by an appropriate sterile filter before using it on cell culture.

  • Background

    The Rh blood group system is one of the major blood group systems in humans and the D antigen is the main component of this system.

    D Antigen

    The presence of the D antigen on the surface of red blood cells indicates a positive Rh factor. Individuals with this antigen are classified as Rh-positive (Rh+), while those without it are Rh-negative (Rh-).

    Genetics

    The Rh factor is inherited in a Mendelian manner, with the D antigen being monitored by the RHD gene located on chromosome 1. The presence of the D allele (RHD) results in Rh positivity.

    Immunization

    Rh-negative individuals can develop antibodies against the D antigen if exposed to Rh-positive blood. In order to prevent such interaction, Rh-negative mothers are often given Rh immunoglobulin (Rho(D) immune globulin) during and after pregnancy.

    Clinical Significance

    The Rh D antigen is vital in blood transfusions and pregnancy. Rh incompatibility can occur when an Rh- mother carries an Rh+ fetus, which may lead to hemolytic disease of the newborn (HDN).

    Blood Transfusions

    Rh compatibility is very important in transfusions. Rh- individuals should receive Rh- blood to avoid an immune reaction.
