Based on 1 Customer Validation
B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein is a secreted protein found on the outside of the cell membrane. B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein is a crucial component of MHC class I molecules, essential for presenting tumor antigens to T cells. B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein is a systemic pro-aging factor that can impair cognitive function and neurogenesis. B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein, Human (His) is a recombinant human Beta-2-microglobulin protein with a His tag, expressed in E. coli.

Biologische Aktivität
B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein is a secreted protein found on the outside of the cell membrane. B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein is a crucial component of MHC class I molecules, essential for presenting tumor antigens to T cells. B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein is a systemic pro-aging factor that can impair cognitive function and neurogenesis. B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein, Human (His) is a recombinant human Beta-2-microglobulin protein with a His tag, expressed in E. coli[1][2].
B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein is a low molecular weight protein that shares sequence homology with immunoglobulins. It is found in almost all nucleated cells and most body fluids, including serum, urine, and synovial fluid[2]. B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein shows about 70% amino acid sequence similarity with mouse protein, and both are located on homologous chromosomes. The secondary structure of this protein consists of seven β chains, which are connected by a single disulfide bond to form two β sheets, displaying the classic β sandwich structure typical of immunoglobulin domains[3]. B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein is expressed at a constant level in many cells and can induce the expression of IL-6, IL-8, and IL-10 in various cell types, regulate the expression of hormones/growth factors, and coordinate interactions between cytokines and their receptors[2]. B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein can interact with MHC I or similar molecules to stabilize their tertiary structure, and it plays a significant role in regulating functions related to the survival, proliferation, apoptosis, and even metastasis of cancer cells[2]. B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein is closely related to diseases such as acute and chronic inflammation, liver/kidney dysfunction, viral infections, and tumors[2].
The expression of B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein in B2M gene-transfected melanoma cells FO-1 can induce the expression of HLA class I antigens, which leads to a decreased sensitivity of tumor cells to lysis mediated by natural killer cells[4]. Targeting the destruction of the B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin gene can reduce the immunogenicity of human embryonic stem cells[5].
In B2M gene knockout mice, the lack of B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein expression leads to decreased mating frequency and impaired reproductive phenotype[1]. In mice with functional inactivation of the B2M gene, the lack of B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin protein expression leads to resistance against diabetes and pancreatitis[2]. B2M/Beta-2-microglobulin Protein (100 μg/kg; 5 times within 12 days; intraorbital injections) can impair the learning and memory abilities of young mice[1].
Immobilized Human B2M at 2 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind Anti-B2M antibody. The ED50 for this effect is 0.5-1.0 μg/mL.
