CD2 Protein, Rat (HEK293, Fc)
Based on 1 Customer Validation
CD2 Protein, a cell surface glycoprotein, mediates T-cell activation and adhesion by binding to its ligand, CD58. It facilitates immune responses and intercellular communication. CD2 Protein is a promising target for immunotherapy and may lead to innovative treatments for immune-related disorders. CD2 Protein, Rat (HEK293, Fc) is the recombinant rat-derived CD2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc labeled tag.
- Species: Rat
- Source: HEK293
-
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.

Description

CD2 Protein, Rat (HEK293, Fc) is the recombinant rat-derived CD2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc labeled tag.
Background
CD2 protein plays a crucial role in facilitating adhesion between T-cells and various cell types through its interactions with lymphocyte function-associated antigen CD58 (LFA-3) and CD48/BCM1. It is also involved in triggering T-cells and transmitting signals via its cytoplasmic domain. Additionally, CD2 interacts with CD48, CD58 (LFA-3), CD2AP, and PSTPIP1, suggesting their potential involvement in related cellular processes. Notably, the interaction between CD2 and FCGR3A can modulate NK cell activation and cytotoxicity.
Verified Bioactivity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized Rat CD2, at 2μg/mL (100μL/well) can bind Anti-CD2 antibody. The ED50 for this effect is 1.486 μg/mL.

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.
