LAIR2/CD306 Protein (His Tag), recombinant human

Activity: Testing in progress Protein Construction: Recombinant Human Leukocyte-Associated Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor 2 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Gln22-Pro152 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. Sequence: Gln22-Pro152. Fusion tag: C-His Endotoxin: <1.0 EU per µg of the protein as determined by the LAL method. Apparent Molecular Mass: 19 kDa. Protein function: Leukocyte-Associated Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor 2 (LAIR2) is a secreted, 131 amino acid protein that contains one Ig-like C2 type domain, making it a member of the Ig superfamily. When compared to LAIR-1, its transmembrane counterpart, it shares 83% amino acid identity across the signal sequence and extracellular domains, although one is secreted and one is membrane-bound, the two LAIR proteins are thought to have arisen from a common gene ancestor and appear to share similar adhesion profiles. This suggests that LAIR-2 may compete with LAIR-1 for ligand binding. A 114 amino acid alternate splice form of LAIR-2 is truncated at the C terminus, but retains the entire Ig domain. The expression profile of these splice forms, and the presence of orthologs in other species, have not been reported.
