R&D Systems™ Recombinant Cynomolgus Siglec-2/CD22 Fc Chimera Protein
Description
- Siglecs are sialic acid specific I-type lectins that are characterized by an extracellular domain (ECD) with an N-terminal Ig-like V-type domain followed by varying numbers of Ig-like C2-type domains.
- Siglec-2, also known as B cell antigen CD22 or B-lymphocyte cell adhesion molecule (BL-CAM), is a B cell restricted glycoprotein that is expressed in the cytoplasm of progenitor B and pre-B cells and on the surface of mature B cells.
- In humans, two distinct Siglec-2 cDNAs that arise from differential RNA processing of the same gene have been isolated.
- Within the ECD, cynomolgus Siglec-2 shares 84%, 55%, and 56% aa sequence identity with human, mouse, and rat Siglec-2, respectively.
- Siglec-2 is an adhesion molecule that preferentially binds alpha 2,6- linked sialic acid on the same (cis) or adjacent (trans) cells.
- Consistent with a single ligand-binding region, the first two N-terminal Ig-like domains mediated CD22 adhesion with lymphocytes, neutrophils, monocytes, and erythrocytes.
- Besides its role as an adhesion molecule, Siglec-2 is a co-receptor that physically interacts with B cell receptor (BCR) and is rapidly phosphorylated upon BCR ligation.
- It negatively regulates BCR signals by recruiting tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1 to its ITIMs.
- Phosphorylated Siglec-2 can also interact with other intracellular effector proteins such as Syk, PLC gamma, PI3 kinase and Grb-2, suggesting it may play a role in positive signaling.
