Description
Description: LAMP1 produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 363 amino acids (29-382a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 39.4kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 57-70kDa). LAMP1 is expressed with a 9 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introduction: Lysosomal-Associated Membrane Protein 1 (LAMP1) is a part of the LAMP family. LAMP1 is a membrane protein which is expressed in the endosome-lysosome membranes of cells and is implicated in tumor cell metastasis. A glycoform of LAMP1 is expressed on the surface of activated macrophages and promotes T cell costimulation and a Th1 biased immune response. LAMP1 is also found on the plasma membrane during the activation of NK cells, CD8 & T cells, monocytes, basophils, and platelets
