Recombinant protein corresponding to Leu31-His286 from human C4.4A expressed in NSO cells (O95274).
LYPD3 (Ly6/PLAUR-domain containing protein 3, also MIG-C4 and GPI-anchored metastasis-associated protein C4.4A) is an 85-95kD, variably glycosylated member of the Ly6 family of GPI-anchored proteins. It is expressed on transitional epithelium, keratinocytes and monocytes, and binds laminin 1 and 5, plus Galectin-3. LYPD3 is believed to support cell migration. Mature human LYPD3 is a 296aa GPI-linked glycoprotein. It contains two UPAR domains (aa33-126 and 140-222), and an ADAM cleavage site (aa312-325). The molecule shows extensive N- and O-linked glycosylation. There is one potential isoform that shows a deletion of aa129-180. Over aa 31-286, human LYPD3 shares 81% aa identity with mouse LYPD3. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and Western Blot. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilution: Western Blot: 1ug/ml. Tissue lysates were resolved by SDS-PAGE, transferred to an Immobilon-P membrane and immunoblotted with 1ug/ml sheep anti-hC4.4A. Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher. Storage and Stability: Lyophilized and reconstituted products are stable for 12 months after receipt at -20C. Reconstitute with sterile PBS. Aliquot to avoid repeated freezing and thawing. Store at -20C. For maximum recovery of product, centrifuge the original vial after thawing and prior to removing the cap. Further dilutions can be made in assay buffer.
