The recombinant human CD46 consists of 305 amino acids with a molecular weight of 34 kDa. The apparent molecular mass of recombinant human CD46 is about 55-60 kDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions due to glycosylation.CD46 is also known as MCP and is a type I membrane protein that functions as a cofactor for Complement Factor I-mediated inactivation of complement components C3b and C4b. CD46 is expressed in white blood cells, platelets, epithelial cells, and fibroblasts. In T-cells by binding to CD46, A number of viral and bacterial pathogens seem to exploit this property and directly induce an immunosuppressive phenotype. Defects in CD46 are a cause of susceptibility to hemolytic uremic syndrome atypical type 2 (AHUS2), a disease characterized by uncontrolled complement activation.

Usage guide

Storage	Store at -20℃.Store the lyophilized protein at -20℃ to -80 ℃ up to 1 year from the date of receipt. After reconstitution, the protein solution is stable at -20℃ for 3 months, at 2-8℃ for up to 1 week.
Reconstitution	Centrifuge the vial before opening. Reconstitute to a concentration of 0.1-0.5 mg/mL in sterile distilled water. Avoid vortex or vigorously pipetting the protein. For long term storage, it is recommended to add a carrier protein or stablizer (e.g. 0.1% BSA, 5% HSA, 10% FBS or 5% Trehalose), and aliquot the reconstituted protein solution to minimize free-thaw cycles.
