Characteristics :

This protein carries a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus, followed by an Avi tag. The protein has a calculated MW of 38.8 kDa. The protein migrates as 55-66 kDa under reducing (R) condition (SDS-PAGE) due to glycosylation.

 

Endotoxin Level : Less than 1.0 EU per μg by the LAL method.

 

Buffer : PBS, pH7.4

 

Description :

CD155 (cluster of differentiation 155) also known as the poliovirus receptor is a protein that is encoded by the PVR gene. CD155 is a Type I transmembrane glycoprotein in the immunoglobulin superfamily. Commonly known as Poliovirus Receptor (PVR) due to its involvement in the cellular poliovirus infection in primates, CD155's normal cellular function is in the establishment of intercellular adherens junctions between epithelial cells. The role of CD155 in the immune system is unclear, though it may be involved in intestinal humoral immune responses. Subsequent data has also suggested that CD155 may also be used to positively select MHC-independent T cells in the thymus.
