| Description | BST2 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 133 amino acids (50-161) and having a molecular mass of 14.8 kDa.The BST2 is fused to a 21 amino acid His-Tag at N-terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background | BST2 takes part in the growth and development of B-cells. The human cellular protein BST2 inhibits retrovirus infection by maintaining the diffusion of virus particles after budding from infected cells. BST2 was originally discovered as an inhibitor to HIV-1 infection in the absence of Vpu, but it is also known to inhibit the release of other viruses such as the Lassa and Marburg virions. In addition, BST2 has a part in B-cell activation in rheumatoid arthritis. |
| Expression host | Escherichia Coli. |
| Synonyms | Bone marrow stromal cell antigen 2, CD317 antigen, BST-2, HM1.24 antigen, Tetherin, NPC-A-7. |
| Reagent Appearance | BST2 is supplied as a sterile filtered clear solution. |
| Stability | Store at 4°C if entire vial will be used within 2-4 weeks. Store, frozen at -20°C for longer periods of time. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA).Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles. |
