CD82 Protein, Human, Recombinant (His)

Catalog No. TMPY-02030

CD82, also known as KAI-1, structurally belongs to tetraspanin family while categorised as metastasis suppressor gene on functional grounds. KAI1/CD82 is localized on cell membrane and form interactions with other tetraspanins, integrins and chemokines which are respectively responsible for cell migration, adhesion and signalling. Downregulation of CD82 expression is associated with the advanced stages of many human cancers and correlates with the acquisition of metastatic potential. Recent studies suggest that complex mechanisms underlie CD82 loss of function, including altered transcriptional regulation, splice variant production and post-translational protein modifications, and indicate a central role for CD82 in controlling metastasis as a 'molecular facilitator'. The loss of KAI1/CD82 expression in invasive and metastatic cancers is due to a complex, epigenetic mechanism that probably involves transcription factors such as NFkappaB, p53, and beta-catenin. A loss of KAI1 expression is also associated with the advanced stages of many human malignancies and results in the acquisition of invasive and metastatic capabilities by tumour cells. Thus, KAI1/CD82 is regarded as a wide-spectrum tumor metastasis suppressor.

Biological Activity	Activity testing is in progress. It is theoretically active, but we cannot guarantee it. If you require protein activity, we recommend choosing the eukaryotic expression version first.

KAI1/CD82 is localized on cell membrane and form interactions with other tetraspanins, integrins and chemokines which are respectively responsible for cell migration, adhesion and signalling.

Species	Human
Expression System	HEK293 Cells
Tag	C-His
Accession Number	P27701-1
Synonyms	TSPAN27,ST6,SAR2,R2,KAI-1,KAI1,IA4,GR15,CD82 molecule,C33,4F9
Construction	A DNA sequence encoding the second extracellular domain of human CD82 (P27701-1) (Gly 111-Leu 228) was fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus and a signal peptide at the N-terminus. Predicted N terminal: Gly 111
Protein Purity	> 90 % as determined by SDS-PAGE
Molecular Weight	15 kDa (predicted); 25-33 kDa (reducing condition, due to glycosylation)
Endotoxin	< 1.0 EU/μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method.
Formulation	Lyophilized from a solution filtered through a 0.22 μm filter, containing PBS, pH 7.4. Typically, a mixture containing 5% to 8% trehalose, mannitol, and 0.01% Tween 80 is incorporated as a protective agent before lyophilization.
Reconstitution	A Certificate of Analysis (CoA) containing reconstitution instructions is included with the products. Please refer to the CoA for detailed information.
Stability & Storage	It is recommended to store recombinant proteins at -20°C to -80°C for future use. Lyophilized powders can be stably stored for over 12 months, while liquid products can be stored for 6-12 months at -80°C. For reconstituted protein solutions, the solution can be stored at -20°C to -80°C for at least 3 months. Please avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles and store products in aliquots.
Shipping	In general, Lyophilized powders are shipping with blue ice.
