Recombinant Human Siglec-8 Fc Chimera Protein, CF Summary

Product Specifications

Purity
>95%, by SDS-PAGE visualized with Silver Staining and quantitative densitometry by Coomassie® Blue Staining.
Endotoxin Level
<0.10 EU per 1 μg of the protein by the LAL method.
Activity
Measured by its binding ability in a functional ELISA. When Biotinylated Sialyl Lewis X was immobilized at 0.05 μg/mL (100 μL/well), it binds Recombinant Human Siglec-8 Fc Chimera. The concentration of Human Siglec-8 Fc Chimera that produces 50% of the optimal binding response is approximately 0.2-1.2 μg/mL.

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: Siglec-8

Siglec-8, also known as SAF, is an approximately 75 kDa transmembrane glycoprotein in the Siglec family of sialic acid-binding immune regulatory molecules (1). Mature human Siglec-8 consists of a 347 amino acid (aa) extracellular domain (ECD) with three Ig-like domains, a 21 aa transmembrane segment, and a 115 aa cytoplasmic domain with two tyrosine based signaling motifs (2, 3). Alternative splicing generates additional isoforms that either lack most of the second Ig-like domain or have a substituted cytoplasmic domain without the signaling motifs (4, 5). Siglec-8 is expressed on eosinophils, basophils, and mast cells (2, 3), and it shows a binding preference for the carbohydrate 6-O sulfated sLex (3, 6, 7). In mouse, Siglec-F is a functional paralog of human Siglec-8, as shown by its similar expression profile and ligand specificity (8). Cross-linking of Siglec-8 inhibits Fc epsilon RI alpha induced mast cell degranulation (9). It also induces eosinophil apoptosis, an effect which is enhanced by the eosinophil-activating cytokines IL-5, IL-33, and GM-CSF (10-12).
