| Sequence: | Gln33-Gly287 |
| Accession: | Q5JXA9 |
| Storage: | Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80°C. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8°C for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20°C for 3 months. |
| Shipping: | This product is provided as lyophilized powder which is shipped with ice packs. |
| Formulation: | Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization. Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual. |
| Reconstitution: | Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information. |
| Background: | Signal-regulatory protein beta-2(SIRP-beta-2), is a monomeric single pass type I membrane glycoprotein, belongs to the SIRP/SHPS (CD172) family of the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily. The SIRP family are paired receptors that have similar extracellular domains but differing C-terminal domains and functions. A positively charged residue within the transmembrane domain, in analogy to SIRP-beta-1, is implicated to mediate interaction with the adaptor DAP12 protein, which contains immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs) . Proteins in the SIRP family are typically expressed in immune cells, especially in the myeloid lineages . Based on expression patterns, SIRPs are thought to have roles in immune regulation. SIRP family members role in innate immunity and host defense has potential significance as a therapeutic target in cancer and inflammation. There are currently no known mouse or rat homologs for this protein. |
