Source
Human CLEC5A, His Tag (CLA-H5243) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Pro 28 - Lys 188 (Accession # Q9NY25-1).
Predicted N-terminus: His
Molecular Characterization
This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the N-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 39.0 kDa. The protein migrates as 60-66 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
Endotoxin
Less than 0.1 EU per μg by the LAL method / rFC method.
Purity
>95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
>95% as determined by SEC-MALS.
Formulation
Lyophilized from 0.22 μm filtered solution in PBS, pH7.4 with trehalose as protectant.

Background
CLEC5A, also known as MDL1 and MDL-1, is a member of the C-type lectin/C-type lectin-like domain (CTL/CTLD) superfamily.CLEC5A is expressed on monocytes, macrophages, and neutrophils. Its expression is up-regulated on monocytes in rheumatoid arthritis. CLEC5A with dnax-activation protein 12 and may play a role in cell activation. It also functions as a positive regulator of osteoclastogenesis. CLEC5A acts as a key regulator of synovial injury and bone erosion during autoimmune joint inflammation .The binding of dengue virus to CLEC5A triggers signaling through the phosphylation of TYROBP, this interaction does not result in viral entry, but stimulates proinflammatory cytokine release.
