Product Specs

Introduction
C-type Lectin Domain Family 2, Member B (CLEC2B) is a protein that belongs to the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily. This family of proteins is known for its diverse functions, including cell adhesion, cell-cell signaling, glycoprotein turnover, and roles in inflammation and immune response. The CLEC2B gene is located on chromosome 12p13 in the natural killer gene complex region, in close proximity to other CTL/CTLD superfamily members. CLEC2B is primarily expressed in lymphoid tissues and most hematopoietic cell types.
Description
Recombinant human CLEC2B protein was produced in E. coli and purified to a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain. This protein consists of 147 amino acids (residues 26-149) and has a molecular weight of 16.9 kDa. For purification and detection purposes, a 23 amino acid His-tag is fused to the N-terminus.
Physical Appearance
Clear, colorless solution, sterile-filtered.
Formulation
The CLEC2B protein solution is provided at a concentration of 1 mg/ml. The solution also contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 2M urea, and 10% glycerol.
Stability
For short-term storage (up to 4 weeks), the protein solution can be stored at 4°C. For extended storage, it is recommended to freeze the solution at -20°C. Adding a carrier protein such as HSA or BSA (0.1%) is recommended for long-term storage. Repeated freezing and thawing of the protein solution should be avoided.
Purity
The purity of the CLEC2B protein is greater than 85%, as determined by SDS-PAGE analysis.
Synonyms

Product Science Overview

Introduction

C-type Lectin Domain Family 2, Member B (CLEC2B) is a protein encoded by the CLEC2B gene in humans. This protein is part of the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily, which is characterized by a common protein fold and diverse functions .

Gene and Protein Structure

The CLEC2B gene is located on chromosome 12p13.31 and encodes a type 2 transmembrane protein . The protein consists of a carbohydrate-recognition domain (CRD) that is typical of C-type lectins. This domain is responsible for binding carbohydrates in a calcium-dependent manner .

Functions

Members of the CTL/CTLD superfamily, including CLEC2B, have various roles in biological processes such as:

  • Cell adhesion: Facilitating the binding of cells to each other or to the extracellular matrix.
  • Cell-cell signaling: Mediating communication between cells.
  • Glycoprotein turnover: Involved in the degradation and recycling of glycoproteins.
  • Inflammation and immune response: Playing roles in the body’s defense mechanisms .
Expression and Regulation

CLEC2B is expressed in various tissues, including the skin, monocytes, and other immune cells . The expression of CLEC2B can be induced by certain stimuli, suggesting its role in immune responses and inflammation .

Clinical Significance

Mutations or dysregulation of the CLEC2B gene have been associated with certain diseases, such as mediastinum teratoma . Understanding the function and regulation of CLEC2B can provide insights into its role in disease mechanisms and potential therapeutic targets.
