Snaclec rhodocytin subunit alpha, Calloselasma rhodostoma, recombinant

Organism: Calloselasma rhodostoma (Malayan pit viper) (Agkistrodon rhodostoma). Source: E.coli. Expression Region: 1-136aa. Protein Length: Full Length. Tag Info: N-terminal 6xHis-SUMO-tagged. Target Protein Sequence: GLEDCDFGWS PYDQHCYQAF NEQKTWDEAE KFCRAQENGA HLASIESNGE ADFVSWLISQ KDELADEDYV WIGLRAQNKE QQCSSEWSDG SSVSYENLID LHTKKCGALE KLTGFRKWVN YYCEQMHAFV CKLLPY. Purity: Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Endotoxin: Not test. Biological Activity: n/a. Form: Liquid or Lyophilized powder. Buffer: If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0. Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20 °C/-80 °C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference. Storage: The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. Notes: Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4 °C for up to one week. Relevance: Elicits platelet aggregation by the binding to the C-type lectin domain family 1 member B (CLEC1B/CLEC2). Binding leads to tyrosine phosphorylation in the Cytoplasmic domain tail of CLEC1B, which promotes the binding of spleen tyrosine kinase (Syk), subsequent activation of PLC-gamma-2, and platelet activation and aggregation. Binding to GPIbalpha (GP1BA) and alpha-2/beta-1 (ITGA2/ITGB1) may also induce aggregation, but this is controversial. Reference: "Aggretin, a heterodimeric C-type lectin from Calloselasma rhodostoma (malayan pit viper), stimulates platelets by binding to alpha 2beta 1 integrin and glycoprotein Ib, activating Syk and phospholipase Cgamma 2, but does not involve the glycoprotein VI/Fc receptor gamma chain collagen receptor."Navdaev A., Clemetson J.M., Polgar J., Kehrel B.E., Glauner M., Magnenat E., Wells T.N.C., Clemetson K.J.J.
