| Formulation |
Lyophilized from a 0.2um filtered concentrated solution in PBS, pH 7.4. |
| Solubility |
It is recommended to reconstitute the lyophilized sCD23 in sterile 18M?-cm H2O not less than 100ug/ml, which can then be further diluted to other aqueous solutions. |
| Purity |
Greater than 97.0% as determined by:(a) Analysis by RP-HPLC.(b) Analysis by SDS-PAGE. |
| Description |
sCD23 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated, polypeptide chain containing 172 amino acids and having a molecular mass of 19.2kDa.The sCD23 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques. |
| Protein Background |
CD23 is a 45kDa glycoprotein, which is present on a subpopulation of freshly isolated peripheral blood and tonsil B cells and strongly expressed on EBV-transformed B lymphoblasts. The CD23 molecule is identical to the low affinity IgE receptor found on B cells. Expression of CD23 has been detected in neoplastic cells from cases of B cell chronic lymphocyctic leukaemia and some cases of centroblastic/centrocytic lymphoma. |
| Expression host |
Escherichia Coli. |
| Synonyms |
Low affinity immunoglobulin epsilon Fc receptor, Lymphocyte IgE receptor, Fc-epsilon-RII, BLAST-2, Immunoglobulin E-binding factor, CD23 antigen, FCER2, CD23, FCE2, CD23A, IGEBF, CLEC4J. |
| Reagent Appearance |
Sterile Filtered White lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder. |
| Stability |
Lyophilized sCD23 although stable at room temperature for 3 weeks, should be stored desiccated below -18°C. Upon reconstitution sCD23 should be stored at 4°C between 2-7 days and for future use below -18°C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |

| Biological Activity |
Fully biologically active when compared to standard. The ED50 is determined by its ability to induce TNF-alpha production by human PBMCs. |
