SYNONYMS
T-cell surface glycoprotein CD1b, CD1B, CD1, CD1A, R1.
INTRODUCTION
CD1B belongs to CD1 family of transmembrane glycoproteins, which are structurally associated with the MHC proteins and form heterodimers with the beta-2-microglobulin. CD1B includes one Ig-like domain. CD1B is an antigen-presenting protein which connects self and nonself lipid and glycolipid antigens and displays them to T-cell receptors on natural killer T-cells.
DESCRIPTION
CD1B Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 310 amino acids (18-303a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 34.2kDa.CD1B is fused to a 24 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
