P-Selectin is an adhesion molecule that belongs to the selectin/LECAM (Leukocyte-Endothelial Cell Adhesion Molecule) family. P-Selectin consists of one Lectin domain and several EGF-like repeats, which are followed by a transmembrane region and a short cytoplasmic tail of 35 amino acids. P-Selectin is expressed in endothelial cells and megakaryocytes. In unstimulated cells, P-Selectin is synthesized and stored in the alpha-granules of platelets and the Weibel-Palade bodies of endothelial cells. Upon activation or exposure of stimuli, such as thrombin and histamine, P-Selectin is rapidly translocated to the cell membrane within minutes and then is recycled back via endocytosis. Inflammatory stimuli, including TNF-α and endotoxins, can induce P-Selectin expression at the transcriptional and protein levels in mouse endothelial cells, but not in HUVEC. IL-4 and oncostatin M can induce P Selectin expression in HUVEC cells. Surface P Selectin binds to its ligand, PSGL-1, which is a glycoprotein that is expressed in neutrophils, monocytes, and dendritic cells. Its interaction initiates cell contact and selectin-mediated leukocyte rolling on the endothelial cells’ surfaces. In addition, some evidence has shown that P-Selectin contributes to cancer metastasis. P-Selectin plays a key role in thrombosis and is an early marker of thromboembolism in COVID-19.

• 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)
