This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus. The protein has a calculated MW of 22.3 kDa. The protein migrates as 30-45 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to differtent glycosylation.
No activity loss was observed after storage at: In lyophilized state for 1 year (4 °C), After reconstitution under sterile conditions for 3 months (-70 °C).

背景
CD antigen CD58 is also known as Lymphocyte function-associated antigen 3 (LFA-3). CD58 is a cell adhesion molecule expressed on Antigen Presenting Cells (APC), particularly macrophages. CD58 /LFA3 is ligand of the T-lymphocyte CD2 glycoprotein, which binds to CD2 (LFA-2) [3] on T cells and is important in strengthening the adhesion between the T cells and Professional Antigen Presenting Cells. In addition, the LFA-3/CD2 interaction may prime response by both the CD2+ and LFA-3+ cells. Polymorphisms in the CD58 gene are associated with increased risk for multiple sclerosis.
