Recombinant Human Integrin alpha 4 beta 7 Protein, CF Summary

Product Specifications

Purity

>95%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Silver Staining and quantitative densitometry by Coomassie® Blue Staining.

Endotoxin Level

<1.0 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.

Activity

Measured by the ability of the immobilized protein to support the adhesion of CHO Chinese hamster ovary cells transfected with VCAM-1. When 5 x 10⁴ cells per well are added to Recombinant Human Integrin alpha 4/ beta 7/LPAM-1 coated plates (10 μg/mL, 100 μL/well), approximately
50-80% will adhere after 60 minutes at 37 °C.

Carrier Free

What does CF mean?

CF stands for Carrier Free (CF). We typically add Bovine Serum Albumin (BSA) as a carrier protein to our recombinant proteins. Adding a carrier protein enhances protein stability, increases shelf-life, and allows the recombinant protein to be stored at a more dilute concentration. The carrier free version does not contain BSA.

What formulation is right for me?

In general, we advise purchasing the recombinant protein with BSA for use in cell or tissue culture, or as an ELISA standard. In contrast, the carrier free protein is recommended for applications, in which the presence of BSA could interfere.

Background: Integrin alpha 4 beta 7/LPAM-1

Integrin alpha 4 beta 7 is an integrin family adhesion receptor that shares subunits with alpha 4 beta 1 (VLA4) and the E-Cadherin receptor, alpha E beta 7 (1). It is a non-covalent heterodimer composed of two type I transmembrane glycoprotein subunits, a 150 kDa alpha 4 (CD49d) subunit and a 130 kDa beta 7 subunit (2, 3). The alpha 4 extracellular domain (ECD) contains an N-terminal beta -propeller structure followed by thigh, calf-1, and calf-2 domains (1). The beta 7 ECD contains a vWFA domain, which interacts with the
alpha 4 beta -propeller to form a binding domain. Metal ion binding sites termed MIDAS and LIMBS promote firm adhesion, and another site termed ADMIDAS is a negative regulatory site that promotes rolling (4-6). The human alpha 4 ECD shares 85% amino acid sequence identity with the mouse, rat, and canine alpha 4 ECD. The human beta 7 ECD shares 88% and 87% amino acid sequence identity with the rat and mouse beta 7 ECD, respectively. Integrin alpha 4 beta 7 binds the mucosal addressin MAdCAM-1, as well as VCAM-1 and Fibronectin (7). Integrin alpha 4 beta 7, which is critical for homing to intestinal mucosa, is induced during T cell activation in Peyer’s patches or mesenteric lymph nodes (8, 9). Its expression requires signals from local dendritic and stromal cells, including secreted retinoic acid (10, 11). The HIV-1 envelope protein gp120 binds to the active form of Integrin alpha 4 beta 7, and this may or may not account for the concentration of HIV-1 virus in the gut-associated lymphoid tissue (GALT) (12-14). Integrin alpha 4 beta 7 may also be involved in lymphocyte trafficking in acute intestinal graft vs. host disease (GVHD) (15).
