Product Specs

Introduction
CD43 is a crucial sialoglycoprotein found on the surface of various immune cells, including T lymphocytes, monocytes, granulocytes, thymocytes, and some B lymphocytes. It plays a role in T-cell activation as part of a ligand-receptor complex. During T-cell activation, CD43 is actively removed from the contact site between the T-cell and the antigen-presenting cell (APC), suggesting a negative regulatory role for CD43 in adaptive immune responses.

Recombinant human CD43, produced in E. coli, is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain consisting of 257 amino acids (20-253a.a.). It has a molecular weight of 25.8 kDa. The protein includes a 23 amino acid His-tag at the N-terminus and is purified using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Physical Appearance
Clear, colorless solution, sterile-filtered.
Formulation
The CD43 protein solution has a concentration of 1mg/ml and is supplied in 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 0.15M NaCl, and 10% glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), store at 4°C. For longer storage, freeze at -20°C. Adding a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is recommended for long-term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Product Science Overview

Structure and Synthesis

In humans, CD43 is synthesized as a 400 amino acid precursor that includes:

  • A 19 amino acid signal sequence
  • A 234 amino acid extracellular region
  • A 23 amino acid transmembrane domain
  • A 124 amino acid cytoplasmic tail

The extracellular region of CD43 contains 25 O-linked glycosylation sites and one N-linked glycosylation site, contributing to its highly sialylated nature .

Functions

CD43 has diverse and context-specific functions:

  • Cell Adhesion: It can either promote or inhibit cell adhesion depending on the cellular context .
  • Apoptosis: CD43 can induce or protect against apoptosis, again depending on the context .
  • T-cell Modulation: It restricts leukocyte adhesion and modulates T-cell activation .
Recombinant CD43

Recombinant human CD43 is produced using a mouse myeloma cell line (NS0) and includes a C-terminal 10-His tag for purification purposes . The recombinant protein is typically lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution in PBS and can be reconstituted at 250 μg/mL in PBS .

Applications

Recombinant CD43 is used in various research applications, including:

  • Functional ELISA: It is measured by its binding ability in functional ELISA assays .
  • Cell Culture: It is used in cell or tissue culture studies to understand its role in cell adhesion, apoptosis, and T-cell modulation .
Storage and Stability

The recombinant protein is stable for 12 months when stored at -20 to -70°C as supplied. After reconstitution, it remains stable for one month at 2 to 8°C under sterile conditions and for three months at -20 to -70°C under sterile conditions .

CD43’s multifaceted roles in immune regulation make it a significant protein for research in immunology and cancer biology.
