IL13RA2 / CD213A2 recombinant protein
Recombinant Mouse IL13RA2 / CD213A2 Protein (His & Fc tag)
Description: A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain (Met 1-Lys 334) of mouse IL13Ralpha2 (NP_032382.1) was fused with the C-terminal polyhistidine-tagged Fc region of human IgG1 at the C-terminus.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a receptor protein that binds to interleukin 13 (IL-13) with very high affinity. The encoded protein acts as a decoy receptor, and does not elicit any signal upon the binding of IL-13. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit increased levels of serum immunoglobulins, immune-dependent production of interferon gamma and, increased bone marrow macrophage progenitor frequency. Macrophages lacking the encoded protein release less nitric oxide and IL-12 in response to lipopolysaccharide. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. [provided by RefSeq, Apr 2015]
Uniprot Description
IL13RA2: a type I membrane protein that binds with high affinity to interleukin-13 (IL13), but not to interleukin-4 (IL4). Lacks a cytoplasmic domain, and does not appear to function as a signal mediator. It is reported to play a role in the internalization of IL13. A member of the Cancer-Testis Antigen (CTA) superfamily. CTAs may play roles in embryonal development and tumor transformation or aspects of tumor progression. CTAs were once thought to be silenced in most normal adult tissues, with limited expression in fetal, placental, testis, and ovarian cells. These proteins are now known to be aberrantly expressed in various cancers and many are capable of eliciting humoral and cellular immune responses. The WSXWS motif appears to be necessary for proper protein folding and thereby efficient intracellular transport and cell-surface receptor binding. The box 1 motif is required for JAK interaction and/or activation. Often overexpressed in brain tumors. A potential vaccine targets for immunotherapy of glioma.

Product Notes
The IL13RA2 / CD213A2 il13ra2 (Catalog #AAA2547247) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Human Cells and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The recombinant mouse IL13Ralpha2/Fc is a disulfide-linked homodimer after removal of the signal peptide. The reduced monomer consists of 561 amino acids and has a predicted molecular mass of 64.5 kDa. In SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions, the apparent molecular mass of rmIL13Ralpha2/Fc monomer is approximately 75-80 kDa due to glycosylation. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the IL13RA2 / CD213A2 il13ra2 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "IL13RA2 / CD213A2, Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
