Molecular Characterization

Other Tags and Version Biotin & Other Labeled Version
This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 44.1 kDa. The protein migrates as 57-100 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to different glycosylation.
Endotoxin
Less than 0.1 EU per μg by the LAL method / rFC method.
Purity
>92% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant.

Background
Carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1) is also known as Biliary glycoprotein 1 (BGP1), CD66a, which belongs to the immunoglobulin superfamily or CEA family. CEACAM1 /CD66a contains three Ig-like C2-type (immunoglobulin-like) domains and one Ig-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain. CEACAM1 /CD66a was described as an adhesion molecule mediating cell adhesion via both homophilic and heterophilic manners, and was detected on leukocytes, epithelia, and endothelia. Studies have revealed that CEACAM1 / BGP-1 performs actions in multiple cellular processes including tissue differentiation, angiogenesis, apoptosis, metastasis, as well as the modulation of innate and adaptive immune responses.
