CD59a Protein, Mouse (HEK293, Fc)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

CD59a Protein acts as a potent inhibitor of the complement membrane attack complex (MAC) by binding to C8 and/or C9 complements during MAC assembly. This interaction prevents the incorporation of multiple C9 copies, crucial for osmolytic pore formation. CD59a's regulatory role at the MAC assembly level safeguards cells, preventing uncontrolled osmolytic pore formation and protecting against complement-mediated damage. CD59a Protein, Mouse (HEK293, Fc) is the recombinant mouse-derived CD59a protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc labeled tag.

Description

CD59a Protein acts as a potent inhibitor of the complement membrane attack complex (MAC) by binding to C8 and/or C9 complements during MAC assembly. This interaction prevents the incorporation of multiple C9 copies, crucial for osmolytic pore formation. CD59a's regulatory role at the MAC assembly level safeguards cells, preventing uncontrolled osmolytic pore formation and protecting against complement-mediated damage. CD59a Protein, Mouse (HEK293, Fc) is the recombinant mouse-derived CD59a protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-hFc labeled tag.

Background

CD59a Protein emerges as a potent inhibitor of the complement membrane attack complex (MAC) action, functioning by binding to the C8 and/or C9 complements during the assembling MAC. Through this interaction, CD59a prevents the incorporation of multiple copies of C9 essential for the complete formation of the osmolytic pore. This regulatory role underscores the crucial contribution of CD59a in modulating the complement system, specifically at the level of MAC assembly, and serves as a pivotal safeguard mechanism against the uncontrolled formation of the osmolytic pore, ultimately protecting cells from potential complement-mediated damage.

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, 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.
