Human MAdCAM-1 Protein, Fc Tag (MALS verified)
Synonym
MAdCAM-1, MAdCAM1, Mucosal vascular addressin cell adhesion molecule 1 transcript variant 1
Source
Human MAdCAM-1, Fc Tag (MAM-H5253) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Gln 19 - Gln 333 (Accession # Q4PKD0-1).
Predicted N-terminus: Gln 19
Molecular Characterization
This protein carries a human IgG1 Fc tag at the C-terminus.
The protein has a calculated MW of 59.6 kDa. The protein migrates as 70-100 kDa when calibrated against Star Ribbon Pre-stained Protein Marker under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.
Endotoxin
Less than 1.0 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
The mucosal addressin cell adhesion molecule-1 (MAdCAM-1) takes a key role in the endothelial adhesion and migration of lymphocytes to sites of inflammation in inflammatory disease. In vitro and in vivo data indicate that blockade of the adhesion molecule mucosal address in cell adhesion molecule (MAdCAM) pathway decreases leukocyte homing to the gut by inhibiting the interaction between MAdCAM and its ligand the α4β7 integrin expressed on lymphocytes.
