C2/Complement C2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)
Based on 1 publication(s) in Google Scholar
C2/Complement C2 protein is essential in the classical pathway of the complement system. Activated by factor C1, C2 is cleaved into C2b and C2a. As a serine protease, C2a interacts with C4b, generating the C3 or C5 convertase. This crucial process activates and amplifies the complement cascade. C2/Complement C2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived C2/Complement C2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.
- Species: Human
- Source: HEK293

Biological Activity
C2/Complement C2 protein is essential in the classical pathway of the complement system. Activated by factor C1, C2 is cleaved into C2b and C2a. As a serine protease, C2a interacts with C4b, generating the C3 or C5 convertase. This crucial process activates and amplifies the complement cascade. C2/Complement C2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived C2/Complement C2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.
C2/Complement C2 protein plays a crucial role in the classical pathway of the complement system. When activated by factor C1, C2 undergoes cleavage, resulting in the formation of two fragments: C2b and C2a. C2a, functioning as a serine protease, subsequently interacts with complement factor C4b, leading to the generation of the C3 or C5 convertase. This process is essential for the activation and amplification of the complement cascade.
Measured by its ability to cleave a colorimetric peptide substrate, N-carbobenzyloxy-Gly-Arg-ThioBenzyl ester (Z-GR-SBzl), in the presence of 5,5’Dithio-bis (2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB). The specific activity is 165.13 pmol/min/μg.

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.
<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.
It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).
Stored at -20°C for 2 years from date of receipt. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.
Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
