THY1, Recombinant, Human, aa20-130, His-Tag (Thy-1 Membrane Glycoprotein, CD90, CDw90)

THY1, as known as Thy-1 membrane glycoprotein, is a cell membrane protein which contains 1lg-like V-type (immunoglobulin-like) domain. This protein is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily of adhesion molecules with constitutive expression on fibroblast cells. It can be used as a marker for a variety of stem cells and for the axonal processes of mature neurons. Also, this protein led to some of the initial biochemical description and characterization of a vertebrate glycophosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor and also the first demonstration of tissue specific differential glycosylation.||Source:|Recombinant protein corresponding to aa20-130 from human THY1, fused to His-Tag at C-terminal, expressed in insect cell.||Molecular Weight: |~13.3kD (117aa) 13.5-28kD (SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions)||Amino Acid Sequence:|QKVTSLTACL VDQSLRLDCR HENTSSSPIQ YEFSLTRETK KHVLFGTVGV PEHTYRSRTN FTSKYNMKVL YLSAFTSKDE GTYTCALHHS GHSPPISSQN VTVLRDKLVK CHHHHHH||Endotoxin:|~1EU/1ug (LAL)||Storage and Stability:|May be stored at 4°C for short-term only.
