Datasheet

Overview

Product name Recombinant Human B7-H4/VTCN1 Protein
Catalog No. RP00218
Description Recombinant Human B7-H4/VTCN1 Protein is produced by HEK293 cells expression system. The target protein is expressed with sequence (Phe29-Ala258) of human B7-H4/B7S1/B7x (Accession #NP_078902.2) fused with a 6×His tag at the C-terminus.
Bio-Activity Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA.Immobilized Mouse B7-H4/VTCN1/VISTA (Catalog: RP00218) at 1 μg/mL (100 μL/well) can bind B7-H4/VTCN1 Rabbit pAb with a linear range of 0.2-22 ng/mL.
Purity > 95% by SDS-PAGE.
Endotoxin < 0.1 EU/μg of the protein by LAL method.
Formulation Lyophilized from a 0.22 μm filtered solution of PBS, pH 7.4.Contact us for customized product form or formulation.
Species Human
B7 homolog 4 (B7-H4, VTCN1) is a member of the B7 family of cell surface ligands that regulate T cell activation and immune responses.B7-H4 is expressed on the surface of activated lymphocytes, macrophages, monocytes, dendritic cells, epithelial cells, and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells. Its binding to activated T cells dampens T cell responses and induces cell cycle arrest in the T cell.The B7-H4 protein is also found in ovarian cancer , breast cancer, renal cell carcinoma, and rheumatoid arthritis patients.Research studies indicate that B7-H4 protein is present on the surface of ovarian tumor cells, and that targeted inhibition of B7-H4 using recombinant antibodies restores T cell activation pathways. These studies suggest some potential therapeutic value in blocking B7-H4 function and restoring T cell function in cancer patients.

Storage Store the lyophilized protein at -20°C to -80 °C for long term.
After reconstitution, the protein solution is stable at -20 °C for 3 months, at 2-8 °C for up to 1 week.
Reconstitution Centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute to a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/mL in sterile distilled water. Avoid votex or vigorously pipetting the protein. For long term storage, it is recommended to add a carrier protein or stablizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose), and aliquot the reconstituted protein solution to minimize free-thaw cycles.
