Scientific Background
Human CD244, Fc fusion protein, also known as Natural Killer Cell Receptor 2B4. GenBank Accession No. NM_016382, a.a. 22-229 expressed in a HEK293 cell expression system. This protein is fused at the C-terminus to the Fc region of human IgG1 and is enzymatically biotinylated using Avi-tag™ technology. MW = 52 kDa. This protein runs at a higher MW by SDS-PAGE due to glycosylation.
Product Description
Mammalian (HEK293) ExpressionRecombinant CD244 Human protein is produced using a validated Mammalian (HEK293) expression system and supplied in aqueous buffer solution. Suitable for enzyme kinetics, inhibitor screening, binding assays, structural studies, and related biochemical research applications.

Safety & Handling
Avoid freeze/thaw cycles. Protein may be diluted to ≥100 µg/ml in PBS + glycerol and stored at -80°C.
This protein was produced in Mammalian (HEK293). Expression system selection determines post-translational processing, disulfide bond formation, and co-factor incorporation — all of which affect enzymatic activity. Insect cell (Sf9) systems are preferred for kinases and multi-subunit enzymes that require phosphorylation or chaperone assistance; E. coli is used for structurally simpler proteins.
This protein spans amino acids 22-229. Confirm the region includes your domain of interest — the active site, binding pocket, or substrate recognition sequence — before placing your order. Refer to the UniProt database for domain annotation.
Purity is assessed by SDS-PAGE; see the Certificate of Analysis. A gel image is provided with each lot. BPS Bioscience performs rigorous QC on each lot, including purity assessment and functional activity testing where applicable. Contact technical support if purity ≥99% is required for biophysical measurements.
Useful for studying protein binding and for screening small molecules and antibodies. Refer to the product datasheet for validated protocols and recommended assay conditions. Contact BioHippo technical support for application-specific guidance.
At least 6 months at -80°C. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles. Protein may be diluted to ≥ 100 µg/ml in PBS + glycerol and stored at -80°C. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles — prepare single-use working aliquots. Add BSA or glycerol to aliquots if storing diluted enzyme is necessary. Typical stability is at least 6 months at −80°C.
