Background: MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B; also known as MICB; is a heavily glycosylated protein serving as a ligand for the type II receptor NKG2D. MICB shares 85% amino acid identity with MICA; a closely related protein; both of which contain three extracellular immunoglobulin-like domains; but without capacity to bind peptide or interact with beta-2-microglobulin. acting as a stress-induced self-antigen; binding of MICB to the NKG2D receptor activates the cytolytic response of natural killer (NK) cells; CD8+αβ T cells; and γδ T cells on which the receptor is expressed. MICA/B are minimally expressed on normal cells; but are frequently expressed on epithelial tumors and can be induced by bacterial and viral infections. MICA/B recognition thus is involved in tumor surveillance; viral infections; and autoimmune diseases.
Activity: Immobilized human His-NKG2D (78-216) at 10 μg/ml (100 μl/well) can bind human MICB-Fch, The EC50 of human MICB-Fch is 15.9-37.1 ng/ml.
Sequence: Met 1-Gly 298
Purity: > 98 % as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.
Formulation: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4
Normally 5 % - 8 % trehalose, mannitol and 0.01% Tween80 are added as protectants before lyophilization.
Please refer to the specific buffer information in the printed manual.
Reconstitution: Please refer to the printed manual for detailed information.
Endotoxin: < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
Calculated MW: 59.5 kDa
Observed MW: 80-90 kDa
Storage: Generally, lyophilized proteins are stable for up to 12 months when stored at -20 to -80℃. Reconstituted protein solution can be stored at 4-8℃ for 2-7 days. Aliquots of reconstituted samples are stable at < -20℃ for 3 months.
