Product Specs

Introduction

Leukocyte Immunoglobulin Like Receptor B1 (LILRB1), a member of the leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor (LIR) family, is found on immune cells. It binds to MHC class I molecules on antigen-presenting cells, transmitting a negative signal that suppresses immune responses. This inhibitory action helps regulate inflammation, cytotoxicity, and self-reactivity. LILRB1 is present on various immune cells, including B cells, monocytes, subsets of NK cells, gamma delta T cells, memory/effector CD8+ T cells, and monocyte-derived dendritic cells.

Description

Recombinant human LILRB1, produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells, is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain. It comprises 446 amino acids (24-461 a.a), resulting in a molecular weight of 48.5 kDa. The protein includes an 8 amino acid His-tag at the C-terminus and is purified using proprietary chromatographic methods.

Physical Appearance
A clear, colorless solution that has been sterilized by filtration.
Formulation

The LILRB1 solution is provided at a concentration of 0.25 mg/ml in a buffer containing 10% glycerol and Phosphate-Buffered Saline (pH 7.4).

Stability

For short-term storage (2-4 weeks), the LILRB1 solution can be stored at 4°C. For extended storage, freezing at -20°C is recommended. The addition of a carrier protein (0.1% HSA or BSA) is advised for long-term storage. To maintain protein integrity, avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Purity

The purity of LILRB1 is determined to be greater than 95.0% using SDS-PAGE analysis.

Biological Activity

The biological activity of LILRB1 is greater than 50%. This activity is assessed by the protein's ability, when immobilized, to support the adhesion of HSB2 human peripheral blood acute lymphoblastic leukemia cells. The cells are introduced to LILRB1-coated plates at a concentration of 5 µg/ml.

Product Science Overview

Introduction

Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-Like Receptor B1 (LILRB1), also known as CD85j, LIR1, and ILT2, is a transmembrane glycoprotein that plays a crucial role in the immune system. It is a member of the leukocyte immunoglobulin-like receptor (LILR) family, which includes both activating and inhibitory receptors that regulate immune cell activity .

Structure and Function

LILRB1 is a protein-coding gene that belongs to the subfamily B class of LIR receptors. The encoded protein contains two or four extracellular immunoglobulin domains, a transmembrane domain, and two to four cytoplasmic immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motifs (ITIMs) . These ITIMs are essential for the inhibitory function of LILRB1, as they recruit phosphatases that dephosphorylate signaling molecules, thereby downregulating immune cell activation .

Expression and Role in Immune Regulation

LILRB1 is expressed on various immune cells, including neutrophils, monocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells, and some subsets of T and B cells . It serves as a receptor for human leukocyte antigen G (HLA-G), a non-classical major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecule that plays a role in immune tolerance . By binding to HLA-G, LILRB1 can inhibit the activation of immune cells, thereby preventing excessive inflammation and tissue damage .

Clinical Significance

Elevated expression of LILRB1 has been associated with poor prognosis in certain cancers, such as glioma . In glioma, higher LILRB1 expression is linked to increased tumor immune infiltration and poorer patient outcomes. This suggests that LILRB1 may play a role in tumor immune evasion and could be a potential target for immunotherapy .

Recombinant LILRB1

Recombinant human LILRB1 is produced using recombinant DNA technology, which involves inserting the gene encoding LILRB1 into a suitable expression system, such as bacteria or mammalian cells. This allows for the large-scale production of the protein for research and therapeutic purposes . Recombinant LILRB1 can be used to study its structure, function, and interactions with other molecules, as well as to develop potential therapeutic interventions targeting LILRB1.
