Biotin |
Purity |
> 95% as determined by Bis-Tris PAGE |
Endotoxin Level |
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method. |
Biological Activity |
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. Immobilized CD8 alpha/CD8A[Biotin], His & Avi, Human at 0.5μg/ml (100μl/well) on the streptavidin precoated plate (5μg/ml) can bind Anti-CD8 Antibody, hFc Tag. Test result was comparable to standard batch. |
Expression System |
HEK293 |
Theoretical Molecular Weight |
20.5 kDa |
Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 30-38 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, (pH 7.4). |
Reconstitution |
Centrifuge the tube before opening. Reconstituting to a concentration more than 100 μg/ml is recommended. Dissolve the lyophilized protein in distilled water. |
Storage & Stability |
Upon receiving, the product remains stable up to 6 months at -20 °C or below. Upon reconstitution, the product should be stable for 3 months at -80 °C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |

Target Background |
CD8 alpha enhances the responses of antigen-specific CTL activated through TCR through binding MHC class I, favoring lipid raft partitioning of TCR, and inducing intracellular signaling. CD8 alpha is also found on dendritic cells and rat macrophages, but whether CD8 alpha enhances responses of a partner receptor, like TCR, to activate these cells is not known. |
