CD160 Protein, Rhesus Macaque (HEK293)
CD160 Protein, a member of the immunoglobulin 'superfamily' of proteins that binds weakly to MHC I and stimulates NK and CD8+ T‐cell activation. CD160 Protein, Rhesus Macaque (HEK293) is the recombinant Rhesus Macaque-derived CD160 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with tag free.

Storage: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.
Biological Activity
Description
CD160 Protein, a member of the immunoglobulin 'superfamily' of proteins that binds weakly to MHC I and stimulates NK and CD8+ T‐cell activation[1]. CD160 Protein, Rhesus Macaque (HEK293) is the recombinant Rhesus Macaque-derived CD160 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with tag free.
Background
CD160, a 27 kDa glycoprotein, is a member of the immunoglobulin 'superfamily' of proteins. CD160 was initially identified with the monoclonal antibody BY55. CD160 is reported to be expressed by NK cells, NKT cells, intraepithelial T cells, γδ TCR+ T cells, and memory-phenotype, activated and effector CD8+ T cells. CD160 binds weakly to MHC I and stimulates NK and CD8+ T‐cell activation. CD160 also can act as a marker for cytolytic or exhausted CD8+ T cells. Such effects have been attributed to the ability of CD160 to bind classical and nonclassical MHC class I molecules, although with apparent low affinity, requiring clustering of MHC class I molecules or overexpression of CD160 or MHC class I for detection of the interaction[1].

Product Properties
Lyophilized powder.
<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.
