Immobilized human CD226 supports the adhesion of U937 cells in a dose dependent manner with ED50 range of 0.25 - 1.0 µg/mL. Calcein-AM (Cat. No. 425201) was used to measure the number of adherent cells. -
Stability testing for human CD226. Human CD226 was aliquoted in PBS, pH 7.2 at 0.2 mg/ml. One aliquot was freeze and thawed four times (4x freeze/thaws), and compared to a control kept at 4°C (control). The samples were tested in U937 cell adhesion assay.

DNAM-1, also known as CD226, was first identified as T lineage-specific activation antigen (TLiSA) and subsequently renamed as Platelet and T-cell activation antigen 1 (PTA). DNAM-1 consists of two Ig-like domains on its extracellular portion, a transmembrane region and a cytoplasmic region containing binding motifs for members of band 4.1 family and membrane-associated guanylate kinase homolog (MAGUK) family. DNAM-1 is predominantly expressed on cell surface of T cells, NK cells, monocytes/ macrophages, platelets and megakaryocytes and a subset of B cells. DNAM-1 serves as a signaling-transducing adhesion molecule, and it physically and functionally associates with LFA-1 (CD11a/CD18) on NK and T cells. The clustering of LFA-1 induces Fyn-mediated phosphorylation of DNAM-1 and signaling. Several evidences demonstrated that DNAM-1 is involved in NK and T cell-mediated cytotoxicity (CTL) against ligand-expressing tumor cells. Two ligands for DNAM-1 have been identified, the poliovirus receptor (PVR/CD155) and its family member nectin-2 (PRR/CD112), which are located at cell junctions and broadly expressed on epithelial, endothelial and neuronal cells. Additionally, DNAM-1 regulates monocyte extravasation through PVR expressed by endothelial cells. It has reported that DNAM-1 is specifically expressed on differentiated Th1 cells, but not to Th2 or Th0 cells. Antibody blocking assay demonstrated that DNAM-1 may play a role in polarization of T cells, activation and effectors of Th1 cells. PVRIG (CD112R) is identified as a novel immune checkpoint to inhibit T cell response by competing DNAM-1 with CD112.

- Unopened vial can be stored between 2°C and 8°C for up to 2 weeks, at -20°C for up to six months, or at -70°C or colder until the expiration date. For maximum results, quick spin vial prior to opening. The protein can be aliquoted and stored at -20°C or colder. Stock solutions can also be prepared at 50 - 100 µg/mL in appropriate sterile buffer, carrier protein such as 0.2 - 1% BSA or HSA can be added when preparing the stock solution. Aliquots can be stored between 2°C and 8°C for up to one week and stored at -20°C or colder for up to 3 months. Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
- Activity
- ED50 = 0.25 – 1.0 μg/mL as measured by the ability of immobilized protein to support the adhesion of U937 cells. Calcein-AM (Cat. No. 425201) was used to measure the number of adherent cells.

-
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)
