Apparent Molecular Weight |
Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 50-60 kDa based on Bis-Tris PAGE result. |
Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22μm 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 |
CD37 is a tetraspanin expressed prominently on the surface of B cells. It is an attractive molecular target exploited in the immunotherapy of B cell-derived lymphomas and leukemia. Currently, several monoclonal antibodies targeting CD37 as well as chimeric antigen receptor-based immunotherapies are being developed and investigated in clinical trials. Given the unique role of CD37 in the biology of B cells, it seems that CD37 constitutes more than a docking point for monoclonal antibodies, and targeting this molecule may provide additional benefit to relapsed or refractory patients. |
