The recombinant human MRC1 is expressed in E.coli. It carries an N-terminal 6xHis-tag. Its expression region corresponds to the 655-1213aa of the human MRC1. Its purity exceeds 85% as measured by SDS-PAGE. The SDS-PAGE experiments showed MRC1's apparent molecular weight to be 66-80 kDa. It is suitable for the MRC1-related immunology research.
Human MRC1, also called CD206, is a type I integral membrane glycoprotein predominantly expressed on macrophages and dendritic cells. It plays a crucial role in the immune response by recognizing and binding to various carbohydrate structures, particularly those containing mannose, fucose, or N-acetylglucosamine.
MRC1 is primarily involved in the endocytosis and phagocytosis of pathogens, such as fungi and bacteria, which display high densities of mannose on their surfaces [1][2]. It also plays a role in clearing glycoproteins and other macromolecules from the extracellular environment, contributing to homeostasis and immune regulation [3][4].
