Description
Description: MBL2 produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 237 amino acids (21-248a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 25.1kDa. (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 28-40kDa). MBL2 is expressed with a 9 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
Introductions: Mannose-binding protein C (MBL2), belongs to the collectin family of patternrecognition molecules and is an important component in the innate immune system. MBL2 is a secreted glycoprotein which recognizes mannose and N-acetylglucosamine on various microorganisms, and is capable of activating the classical complement pathway. Lacking MBL2 has been associated with susceptibility to autoimmune and infectious diseases
