Leukocyte Ig-Like Receptor B2/LILRB2/ILT4/CD85d (C-Avi-6His) Biotinylated (recombinant human)

Protein Construction: Recombinant Human Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor Subfamily B Member 2 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Gln22-His458 is expressed with a Avi, 6His tag at the C-terminus. Sequence: Gln22-His458. Fusion tag: C-Avi-6His Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per µg as determined by the LAL method. Apparent Molecular Mass: 60-80 kDa. Protein function: Members of the immunoglobulin-like transcript (ILT) family are activating and inhibitory immunoreceptors whose genes are located same locus that encodes killer cell Ig-like receptors (KIR). Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor Subfamily B Member 2 (LIR-2) is a type I transmembrane protein. LIR-2 is expressed primarily on monocytes and dendritic cells (DC). Human LIR-2 is produced as a 598 amino acino acid precursor including a 21 aa signal sequence, a 440 aa extracellular domain (ECD), a 21 aa transmenbrane segment, and a 116 aa cytoplasmic domain. LIR-2 binds to Classical MHCI proteins. Ligation of LIR-2 incluces Tyr phosphorylation within its cytoplasmic ITIMs, a requirement for association with SHP-1. LIR-2 mediates tolerogenic DC-induced CD4+ T cell energy in vitro and in vivo. Protein function: Receptor for class I MHC antigens. Recognizes a broad spectrum of HLA-A, HLA-B, HLA-C, HLA-G and HLA-F alleles (PubMed:11169396, PubMed:12853576, PubMed:16455647, PubMed:20448110, PubMed:27859042). Involved in the down-regulation of the immune response and the development of tolerance. Recognizes HLA-G in complex with B2M/beta-2 microglobulin and a nonamer self-peptide (peptide-bound HLA-G-B2M) triggering differentiation of type 1 regulatory T cells and myeloid-derived suppressor cells, both of which actively maintain maternal-fetal tolerance (PubMed:20448110, PubMed:27859042, PubMed:16455647). Competes with CD8A for binding to class I MHC antigens. Inhibits FCGR1A-mediated phosphorylation of cellular proteins and mobilization of intracellular calcium ions (PubMed:11875462, PubMed:12853576, PubMed:9548455, PubMed:9842885).
