NKG2C/CD159c Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His)

Cat. No.: HY-P77809
Handling Instructions Technical Support

The NKG2C/CD159c protein is an immune-activating receptor that plays a critical role in self-non-self discrimination. It cooperates with KLRD1 to recognize non-classical MHC class Ib HLA-E loaded with HLA-G peptides, affecting adaptive NK cell function and maternal-fetal tolerance. NKG2C/CD159c Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His) is the recombinant cynomolgus-derived NKG2C/CD159c protein, expressed by HEK293 , with N-His labeled tag.

Description

The NKG2C/CD159c protein is an immune-activating receptor that plays a critical role in self-non-self discrimination. It cooperates with KLRD1 to recognize non-classical MHC class Ib HLA-E loaded with HLA-G peptides, affecting adaptive NK cell function and maternal-fetal tolerance. NKG2C/CD159c Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His) is the recombinant cynomolgus-derived NKG2C/CD159c protein, expressed by HEK293 , with N-His labeled tag.

Background

NKG2C/CD159c Protein, an immune activating receptor, plays a pivotal role in self-nonself discrimination. Teaming up with KLRD1 on cytotoxic lymphocyte subsets, it recognizes non-classical major histocompatibility (MHC) class Ib HLA-E loaded with signal sequence-derived peptides from non-classical MHC class Ib HLA-G molecules. This interaction likely contributes to the generation and effector functions of adaptive natural killer (NK) cells and is implicated in maternal-fetal tolerance during pregnancy. NKG2C/CD159c also regulates the effector functions of terminally differentiated cytotoxic lymphocyte subsets, particularly in the adaptive NK cell response to viral infection. Upon binding to HLA-E-peptide complexes, NKG2C/CD159c transmits intracellular signals through the adapter protein TYROBP/DAP12, initiating the phosphorylation of proximal signaling molecules and subsequent cell activation. Forming a heterodimer with KLRD1 through disulfide linkage, the KLRD1-KLRC2 receptor complex, in association with TYROBP homodimers, is crucial for its cell surface expression. Additionally, this receptor complex can bind with low affinity to HLA-E loaded with self-peptides derived from the signal sequence of classical MHC class Ia. The multifaceted interactions and functions of NKG2C/CD159c underscore its essential role in immune responses and self-tolerance mechanisms.

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.

  • Specific Activity Calculator

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
