CLEC4C Protein, Human (HEK293, His)
CLEC4C is a lectin-type cell surface receptor that plays a crucial role in antigen capture by dendritic cells. It specifically recognizes non-sialylated galactose-terminated biantennary glycans with the trisaccharide epitope Gal(beta1-3/4)GlcNAc(beta1-2)Man. CLEC4C, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived CLEC4C protein, expressed by HEK293, with labeled tag.
- Species: Human
- 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.
Biological Activity
CLEC4C is a lectin-type cell surface receptor that plays a crucial role in antigen capture by dendritic cells. It specifically recognizes non-sialylated galactose-terminated biantennary glycans with the trisaccharide epitope Gal(beta1-3/4)GlcNAc(beta1-2)Man. CLEC4C, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived CLEC4C protein, expressed by HEK293, with labeled tag.
The CLEC4C protein functions as a lectin-type cell surface receptor and is implicated in antigen capturing by dendritic cells. It specifically recognizes non-sialylated galactose-terminated biantennary glycans that contain the trisaccharide epitope Gal(beta1-3/4)GlcNAc(beta1-2)Man. Additionally, CLEC4C binds to serum IgG and efficiently targets ligands into antigen-processing and peptide-loading compartments for presentation to T-cells. Notably, it may mediate potent inhibition of the induction of IFN-alpha/beta expression in plasmacytoid dendritic cells and act as a signaling receptor, activating protein-tyrosine kinases and mobilizing intracellular calcium. The protein forms homodimers, underscoring its potential significance in cellular signaling and immune response modulation.

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.
