To make this Recombinant Human COLEC11 protein, the COLEC11 gene was isolated at first and cloned into an expression vector. CUSABIO has built a mature recombinant protein platform. This Recombinant Human COLEC11 protein was developed in the platform. It was expressed in Mammalian cell at the region of 26-271aa of the Human COLEC11 protein. N-terminal 10xHis tag and C-terminal Myc tag was fused with the expression vector for affinity and purification purposes. The purity is 90%+ determined by SDS-PAGE.
The gene encoding collectin-11, COLEC11, is located on chromosome 2p25.3 (OMIM 612502) and comprises 7 exons that transcribe the canonical protein. COLEC11 variability was shown to interfere with expression and also with the binding of calcium and carbohydrates, possibly affecting protein folding. Collectin-11 shows a strong binding affinity to fucose-proteins, as found in the Tc-85 protein family, expressed on the surface of T. cruzi metacyclic trypomastigotes. Those proteins are involved in the entry of the parasite to host cells. In addition, collectin-11 is structurally similar to MBL and it has been shown that both MBL levels and MBL2 genetic variants were associated with disease susceptibility and pathophysiology of CD. Considering these observations, collectin-11 plasma levels and COLEC11 variants in exon 7 were assessed to investigate their potential role in the chronic CD. Moreover, on account of the interaction between collectin-11 and MASPs for complement activation, gene-gene interaction between COLEC11 and MASP2 was assessed to evaluate the additive genetic effect of the two loci and their role in the pathophysiology of this chronic disease.There are currently no reviews for this product.
