Clumping factor B Protein, S. aureus (His, SUMO)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

Clumping factor B (ClfB) is a cell surface-associated protein implicated in virulence, playing a crucial role in bacterial pathogenicity by promoting bacterial attachment to both alpha- and beta-chains of human fibrinogen. Its significance lies in inducing the formation of bacterial clumps, a mechanism that contributes to the pathogenicity and virulence of the bacteria. Clumping factor B Protein, S. aureus (His, SUMO) is the recombinant Staphylococcus aureus-derived Clumping factor B protein, expressed by E. coli , with N-6*His-SUMO labeled tag.

Description

Clumping factor B (ClfB) is a cell surface-associated protein implicated in virulence, playing a crucial role in bacterial pathogenicity by promoting bacterial attachment to both alpha- and beta-chains of human fibrinogen.

Background

Clumping factor B (ClfB) is a cell surface-associated protein crucial for bacterial virulence, as it plays a pivotal role in promoting bacterial attachment. It specifically binds to both alpha- and beta-chains of human fibrinogen, facilitating the formation of bacterial clumps. This interaction is significant in the context of host-pathogen interactions, as it enhances the adherence of bacteria to fibrinogen, contributing to the pathogenicity of the organism. The ability of ClfB to induce bacterial clumps suggests its involvement in the early stages of infection and highlights its potential as a target for therapeutic interventions aimed at disrupting bacterial adherence and virulence (Reference: Information provided)

Product Properties

Appearance

Lyophilized powder.

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4 20 mM Tris-HCl, 0.5 M NaCl, pH 8.0.
Note: For SPR assay, please replace the buffer. Primary amine components (e.g., Tris, imidazole) can affect protein-coupled chips.

Endotoxin Level

<1.0 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.
