Expression System |
HEK293 |
Tag |
C-His |
Expression Range |
Tyr30-T1132(ITGA2) acidic tail & Gln21-Asp728(ITGB1) basic tail |
Mol. Weight |
The protein has a predicted MW of 126.6 kDa(ITGA2)&83.2 kDa(ITGB1). Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 110-140 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result. |
Form |
Lyophilized |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22um filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization. |
Endotoxin |
Less than 1EU per ug by the LAL method. |
Storage |
Reconstituted protein stable at -80°C for 12 months, 4°C for 1 week. Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
Shipping |
Shipped at ambient temperature. |
Gene Background |
The α2β1 integrin, also known as VLA-2, GPIa-IIa, CD49b, was first identified as an extracellular matrix receptor for collagens and/or laminins. It is now recognized that the α2β1 integrin serves as a receptor for many matrix and nonmatrix molecules. It plays a critical role in platelet function and homeostasis. |
