CD58, also known as LFA-3, is a type I transmembrane protein belonging to the CD2 family. Alternative splicing of LFA-3 gives rise to transmembrane and glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored forms on cell surface. LFA-3 is expressed on both hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells including: B cells, T cells, monocytes, dendritic cells, erythrocytes, endothelial cells, epithelial cells, and fibroblasts. LFA-3 expressed on antigen presenting cells enhances MHC class I and II-restricted T cell antigen recognition via the binding of CD2 on the T cell surface. The interaction between CD2 and LFA-3 also mediates thymocyte interaction with thymic epilthelial cells and T cell rosetting with erythocytes. CD58 serves as a co-stimulatory molecule to induce IL-10 and IFN-γ production by human T cells. Recombinant CD58/LFA-3 can serve as a modulator to block E-rosette and NK cytotoxicity, and synergize T cell activation with antibodies against CD2. The CD58-CD2 axis is coregulated with PD-L1 via CMTM6 (CKLF-like MARVEL transmembrane domain-containing 6) and shapes anti-tumor immunity.

- Application Notes
-
BioLegend carrier-free recombinant proteins provided in liquid format are shipped on blue-ice. Our comparison testing data indicates that when handled and stored as recommended, the liquid format has equal or better stability and shelf-life compared to commercially available lyophilized proteins after reconstitution. Our liquid proteins are validated in-house to maintain activity after shipping on blue ice and are backed by our 100% satisfaction guarantee.

• Learn more about our Recombinant Proteins. - How does the activity of your recombinant proteins compare to competitors?
-
We quality control each and every lot of recombinant protein. Not only do we check its bioactivity, but we also compare it against other commercially available recombinant proteins. We make sure each recombinant protein’s activity is at least as good as or better than the competition’s. In order to provide you with the best possible product, we ensure that our testing process is rigorous and thorough. If you’re curious and eager to make the switch to BioLegend recombinants, contact your sales representative today!
- What is the specific activity or ED50 of my recombinant protein?
-
The specific activity range of the protein is indicated on the product datasheets. Because the exact activity values on a per unit basis can largely fluctuate depending on a number of factors, including the nature of the assay, cell density, age of cells/passage number, culture media used, and end user technique, the specific activity is best defined as a range and we guarantee the specific activity of all our lots will be within the range indicated on the datasheet. Please note this only applies to recombinants labeled for use in bioassays. ELISA standard recombinant proteins are not recommended for bioassay usage as they are not tested for these applications.
- Have your recombinants been tested for stability?
-
Our testing shows that the recombinant proteins are able to withstand room temperature for a week without losing activity. In addition the recombinant proteins were also found to withstand four cycles of freeze and thaw without losing activity.
- Does specific activity of a recombinant protein vary between lots?
-
Specific activity will vary for each lot and for the type of experiment that is done to validate it, but all passed lots will have activity within the established ED50 range for the product and we guarantee that our products will have lot-to-lot consistency. Please conduct an experiment-specific validation to find the optimal ED50 for your system.
- How do you convert activity as an ED50 in ng/ml to a specific activity in Units/mg?
-
Use formula Specific activity (Units/mg) = 10^6/ ED50 (ng/mL)
