C2/Complement C2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His)

Cat. No.: HY-P74375
COA Handling Instructions

C2/Complement C2 protein is essential in the classical pathway of the complement system. Activated by factor C1, C2 is cleaved into C2b and C2a. As a serine protease, C2a interacts with C4b, generating the C3 or C5 convertase. This crucial process activates and amplifies the complement cascade. C2/Complement C2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived C2/Complement C2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag. The total length of C2/Complement C2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is 732 a.a., with molecular weight of ~112 kDa.

Description

C2/Complement C2 protein is essential in the classical pathway of the complement system. Activated by factor C1, C2 is cleaved into C2b and C2a. As a serine protease, C2a interacts with C4b, generating the C3 or C5 convertase. This crucial process activates and amplifies the complement cascade. C2/Complement C2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is the recombinant human-derived C2/Complement C2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag. The total length of C2/Complement C2 Protein, Human (HEK293, His) is 732 a.a., with molecular weight of ~112 kDa.

Background

C2/Complement C2 protein plays a crucial role in the classical pathway of the complement system. When activated by factor C1, C2 undergoes cleavage, resulting in the formation of two fragments: C2b and C2a. C2a, functioning as a serine protease, subsequently interacts with complement factor C4b, leading to the generation of the C3 or C5 convertase. This process is essential for the activation and amplification of the complement cascade.

Biological Activity

Measured by its ability to cleave a colorimetric peptide substrate, N-carbobenzyloxy-Gly-Arg-ThioBenzyl ester (Z-GR-SBzl), in the presence of 5,5’Dithio-bis (2-nitrobenzoic acid) (DTNB). The specific activity is 165.13 pmol/min/μg.

Molecular Weight

Approximately 112 kDa

Purity

Greater than 95% as determined by reducing SDS-PAGE.

Appearance

Lyophilized powder

Formulation

Lyophilized from a 0.2 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.

Endotoxin Level

<1 EU/μg, determined by LAL method.

Reconstitution

It is not recommended to reconstitute to a concentration less than 100 μg/mL in ddH2O. For long term storage it is recommended to add a carrier protein (0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose).

Storage & Stability

Stored at -20°C for 2 years. After reconstitution, it is stable at 4°C for 1 week or -20°C for longer (with carrier protein). It is recommended to freeze aliquots at -20°C or -80°C for extended storage.

Shipping

Room temperature in continental US; may vary elsewhere.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.

The reconstitution calculator equation

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration

Volume (to add to vial) = Mass (in vial) ÷ Desired Reconstitution Concentration
= ÷

The dilution calculator equation

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)

This equation is commonly abbreviated as: C1V1 = C2V2

Concentration (start) × Volume (start) = Concentration (final) × Volume (final)
× = ×

The specific activity calculator equation

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)

Specific Activity (Unit/mg) = 106 ÷ Biological Activity (ED50)
Unit/mg = 106 ÷ ng/mL
