Background: Involved in negative regulation of immune response. Acts upstream of or within negative regulation of apoptotic process; negative regulation of tolerance induction; and positive regulation of apoptotic process. Located in external side of plasma membrane. Is expressed in retina. Used to study dilated cardiomyopathy and systemic lupus erythematosus. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autoimmune disease (multiple); hepatitis B; hepatitis C; hepatocellular carcinoma; and lupus nephritis. Orthologous to human PDCD1 (programmed cell death 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
Description: Recombinant mouse PD-1 protein with C-terminal human Fc tag
Molecular Weight: The protein has a predicted molecular mass of 42.3 kDa after removal of the signal peptide. The apparent molecular mass of mPD-1-hFc is approximately 35-70 kDa due to glycosylation.
Storage & Shipping: Store at -20°C to -80°C for 12 months in lyophilized form. After reconstitution, if not intended for use within a month, aliquot and store at -80°C (Avoid repeated freezing and thawing). Lyophilized proteins are shipped at ambient temperature.
Tag: C-Human Fc Tag
Expression Host: HEK293
Formulation & Reconstitution: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4. Normally 5 % - 8% trehalose is added as protectants before lyophilization. Please see Certificate of Analysis for specific instructions of reconstitution.
