| Description: | Human CD7/GP40 protein, His tag (Animal-Free), expressed in HEK293 Cells |
| Further Information: | The CD7 antigen is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily that expresses on the surface of all thymocytes, a majority of mature T cells, and also natural killer cells. Interestingly, under physiological and different pathological conditions, the loss of CD7 antigen occurred in the subset of CD4+ memory T cells. The functions of the cell membrane CD7 antigen have been investigated in human mature T and NK cells, showing the direct involvement of this molecule in multiple effector functions related with activation, proliferation, production of cytokines and modification of adhesion properties. The CD7 glycoprotein is not only expressed by mature lymphoid cells, but also by early hematopoietic progenitors and several types of leukemias, suggesting a role of CD7 during hematopoiesis. |

| Storage: | Lyophilized Human CD7/GP40 protein, His tag (Animal-Free)should be stored desiccated below -20 C. Upon reconstitution, the protein should be stored at 4 C between 2-7 days and for future use below -20 C. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.112% HSA or BSA). Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Usage: | Research use only |
