Biological Activity

Description

CD14 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is a recombinant human CD14 expressed in HEK 293 cells with a His tag at the N-terminus. CD14 Protein is an efficient target for recombinant immunoglobulin vaccine constructs that deliver T cell epitopes[1][2].

Background

CD14, preferentially expressed on the surface of monocytes/macrophages, is a glycophosphatidylinositol‐linked protein, which is also part of the lipopolysaccharide (LPS) receptor complex. CD14 binds LPS and acts as a pattern recognition receptor (PRR). In addition to binding LPS and other bacterial products such as peptidoglycan and lipomannans, human CD14 has been suggested to mediate phagocytosis of bacteria and apoptotic cells[1][2].

Verified Bioactivity

Measured by its ability to enhance LPS-stimulated IL-8 secretion by THP-1 human acute monocytic leukemia cells. The ED50 for this effect is 4.364 ng/mL in the presence of 2 μg/mL LPS. Corresponding to a specific activity is 2.291×10^5 U/mg.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of 20 mM PB, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.4.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

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).

Storage & Stability

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.

Shipping

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.
