Human MBL-2, recombinant (C-6His)

Recombinant Human Mannose Binding Lectin 2 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Glu21-Ile248 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. Protein function: Calcium-dependent lectin involved in innate immune defense. Binds mannose, fucose and N-acetylglucosamine on different microorganisms and activates the lectin complement pathway. Binds to late apoptotic cells, as well as to apoptotic blebs and to necrotic cells, but not to early apoptotic cells, facilitating their uptake by macrophages. May bind DNA. [The UniProt Consortium]
