Scavenger receptor cysteine-rich type 1 protein M130 (Cd163), partial, mouse, recombinant

Organism: Mus musculus (Mouse). Source: E.coli. Expression Region: 86-365aa. Protein Length: Partial. Tag Info: N-terminal 6xHis-tagged. Target Protein Sequence: VVCQQLGCPT SIKALGWANS SAGSGYIWMD KVSCTGNESA LWDCKHDGWG KHNCTHEKDA GVTCSDGSNL EMRLVNSAGH RCLGRVEIKF QGKWGTVCDD NFSKDHASVI CKQLGCGSAI SFSGSAKLGA GSGPIWLDDL ACNGNESALW DCKHRGWGKH NCDHAEDVGV ICLEGADLSL RLVDGVSRCS GRLEVRFQGE WGTVCDDNWD LRDASVVCKQ LGCPTAISAI GRVNASEGSG QIWLDNISCE GHEATLWECK HQEWGKHYCH HREDAGVTCS. Purity: Greater than 90% as determined by SDS-PAGE. Endotoxin: Not test. Biological Activity: n/a. Form: Liquid or Lyophilized powder. Buffer: If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0. Reconstitution: We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20 °C/-80 °C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference. Storage: The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20 °C/-80 °C. Notes: Repeated freezing and thawing is not recommended. Store working aliquots at 4 °C for up to one week. Relevance: Involved in clearance and endocytosis of hoglobin/haptoglobin complexes by macrophages and may thereby protect tissues from free hoglobin-mediated oxidative damage. May play a role in the uptake and recycling of iron, via endocytosis of hoglobin/haptoglobin and subsequent breakdown of he. Binds hoglobin/haptoglobin complexes in a calcium-dependent and pH-dependent manner. Induces a cascade of intracellular signals that involves tyrosine kinase-dependent calcium mobilization, inositol triphosphate production and secretion of IL6 and CSF1 .After shedding, the soluble form (sCD163) may play an anti-inflammatory role.

Function: Involved in clearance and endocytosis of hemoglobin/haptoglobin complexes by macrophages and may thereby protect tissues from free hemoglobin-mediated oxidative damage. May play a role in the uptake and recycling of iron, via endocytosis of hemoglobin/haptoglobin and subsequent breakdown of heme. Binds hemoglobin/haptoglobin complexes in a calcium-dependent and pH-dependent manner. Induces a cascade of intracellular signals that involves tyrosine kinase-dependent calcium mobilization, inositol triphosphate production and secretion of IL6 and CSF1 (By similarity).
