MICA Human, His

Data sheet

Formulation

MICA protein solution (0.25mg/ml) containing Phosphate buffered saline (pH7.4), 10% glycerol and 1mM DTT.

Purity

Greater than 90.0% as determined by SDS-PAGE.

Description

MICA Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 283 amino acids (24-297aa) and having a molecular mass of 32.7kDa.MICA is fused to an 8 amino acid His-tag at C-terminus & purified by proprietary chromat

Protein Background

MICA (MHC class I chain-related gene A) is a transmembrane glycoprotein that functions as a ligand for human NKG2D. A closely related protein, MICB, shares 85% amino acid identity with MICA. These proteins are distantly related to the MHC class I proteins

Expression host

Escherichia Coli.

Synonyms

MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence A, MIC-A, MICA, PERB11.1, HLA-B, AS, HLAB, HLAC, SPDA1, HLA-B73, HLA-B-7301.

Reagent Appearance

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.
