Description
Description: HCST produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 271 amino acids (20-48 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 30.1kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 28-40kDa). HCST is expressed with a 242 amino acid hIgG-His-tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introductions: HCST (Hematopoietic Cell Signal Transducer) is part of the DAP10 family. HCST is capable of being a part of an immunoreceptor complex. HCST takes a vital part in inducing cytotoxicity against MHC class I chain-associated MICA & target cells expressing cell surface ligands such as UL16-binding protein (ULBP) & MICB. HCST complex participates in proliferation as well as cell survival by activating T & NK cell responses
