REG-3 alpha/REG3A Protein, Rat (HEK293, His)
REG-3 α/REG3A protein is a bactericidal C-type lectin lacking an EPN motif that acts as a hormone in response to stimuli such as IL17A and the intestinal microbiome. It is secreted by various cell types and activates the receptor EXTL3, initiating cell-specific signaling pathways. REG-3 alpha/REG3A Protein, Rat (HEK293, His) is the recombinant rat-derived REG-3 alpha/REG3A protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

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
REG-3 α/REG3A protein is a bactericidal C-type lectin lacking an EPN motif that acts as a hormone in response to stimuli such as IL17A and the intestinal microbiome. It is secreted by various cell types and activates the receptor EXTL3, initiating cell-specific signaling pathways. REG-3 alpha/REG3A Protein, Rat (HEK293, His) is the recombinant rat-derived REG-3 alpha/REG3A protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.
Background
REG-3 alpha/REG3A Protein is a bactericidal C-type lectin that lacks the EPN motif, which may explain its inability to bind peptidoglycan. It functions as a hormone in response to various stimuli, including anti-inflammatory signals like IL17A and the gut microbiome. REG-3 alpha/REG3A protein is secreted by different cell types and activates its receptor EXTL3, initiating cell-specific signaling pathways. In keratinocytes, it is induced by IL17A and plays a role in regulating keratinocyte proliferation and differentiation following skin injury. It also inhibits skin inflammation by suppressing inflammatory cytokines like IL6 and TNF. In the pancreas, REG-3 alpha/REG3A protein is able to permeabilize beta-cell membranes and stimulate their proliferation.

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.
